Calcio, Italian: ‘It'll be tough against Atalanta, but we want to keep up the good work’

Rome, 12 Apr. (LaPresse) – Tomorrow's game ‘is a game that at the moment means there's a place in the top rankings at stake’ and this kind of game ‘is difficult’. So said Vincenzo Italiano, Rossoblù coach, at a press conference on the eve of the match between Atalanta and Bologna. ‘Atalanta – he explains – has been one of the strongest teams at home for many years. We're currently performing well, getting important results and we need to keep up the good work in terms of performance and points to add to our ranking’. Italiano doesn't see a crisis in the Dea: ’I've seen all their matches – he says – and maybe only in the one in Florence they weren't their usual selves. In the other games they lost, the line between victory and defeat was ‘thin’. ‘For me,’ concludes Italiano, ‘it's the usual Atalanta, on the attack and aggressive, creating a flood of goal-scoring opportunities at home. You have to expect anything because if they wake up and get on the pitch well, they're the usual goal-scoring machine’.
