Absent from LOSC's training session this Tuesday, Edon Zhegrova was selected by Bruno Genesio to face Bologna FC in the Champions League. This adversary is particularly wary of Kosovar.
Bologna (31st, 1 pt) is late to the start in the Champions League, far behind its opponent Lille (17th, 7 pts) in the standings. The Italian team began its competition with a goalless draw at home against Shakhtar Donetsk (0-0) and has since been unable to add a single point to this total, losing to Liverpool (2-0) and at Aston Villa (2-0), as well as at home (0-1) against Monaco in their fourth and final match. Halfway through, time is running out: “You have to give everything to try to take points. We are still in the game and we will give our all in front of our audience. We will have to be at our best”began Vincenzo Italiano at a press conference this Tuesday.
The latter is nevertheless wary of his opponent:
“Lille is a team made up of high-level players, strong players; they are doing well in the league and the Champions League. It will be a very difficult match. It’s a team that doesn’t leave things to chance, that is physically strong and has a lot of pace.he continued, then citing several individuals. We saw some images of him (Edon Zhegrova). What is striking is its finish. Today he is a top player. Lille is a very dangerous team up front with Jonathan David and his very good statistics. It's a team that proposes, that creates and Zhegrova, in the finish, is a player to be wary of. You have to be very careful, especially as he returns to the axis and faces the goal. He knows how to score”analyzed the technician from Bologna FC, opponent of LOSC as part of the 5th day of the Champions League.
