23.42 – Nereo Bonato’s press conference has begun
Can you explain your presence to us?
“My presence is essentially due to the company’s desire to express dissatisfaction with the extremely penalizing management of cards. There were some episodes evaluated differently between the two teams, especially for an intervention on Luvumbo. Then we get into the key five minutes , from the penalty that deserves great attention to the subsequent double warnings from Mina and Adopo which penalize us. It seems to me that the match referee didn’t even see Mina’s foul and immediately warned the player, creating tension which led to Mina’s subsequent expulsion. Adopo. We also need clear-minded behavior from the referees because these decisions impact today’s match and the weekend’s match where we will be missing two important players. We express our discontent with the team’s improvement Cheers, we stayed in the game after the goal we conceded and we equalised, we remained clear in the match even after the penalty and the double expulsion. There was also the last opportunity to obtain an unexpected result. The team’s performance must be highlighted.”
Are you satisfied with the team’s performance?
“We have to grow and limit some mistakes, but after a complicated start there has been a positive phase. We have come from three games with three defeats but we must not be demoralized, both against Bologna and tonight there was a performance. The games in Serie A are very complicated against really strong teams and many times experiencing an evening where you feel penalized bothers us as a club, the guys who feel penalized and it is right to underline what happened with great calm. There were a sequence of episodes, the The direction of the race seemed to be headed.”
How did the team see it?
“I think there is great regret, this must be a spur for the next matches. There is great bitterness because we will face the next match without two important players, these are situations that could have been read and managed differently. We feel penalized especially for the next match, the boys were obviously nervous and angry but they returned to the locker room with great politeness, we ask this of all the members. They were too strict towards us.”
As a former goalkeeper, do you have anything to say about Scuffet’s mistake today?
“You do feats and you make mistakes, it was a very treacherous ball because the pitch was very wet at the start. It wasn’t a very simple ball, the Lazio player was good at repeating Scuffet’s rebound into the net, but these episodes happen When you make certain mistakes they cost you a goal, but the team had a great reaction and recovered the result. We suffered in an orderly manner in the second half and it could have become a very treacherous match for Lazio, we could have done badly in the open field. We regret this about those five minutes we talked about earlier with the penalty and the two expulsions.”
Are you considering reinforcements in attack for January?
“I believe that the fundamental thing is to go and recover Lapadula and Pavoletti. We need to create situations and between now and December we will understand if there will be a need to intervene. The club is attentive and will be ready if necessary. The main objective is to recover the players , if we can have 90 minutes of intensity with the relay of players we will be able to create more.”
