Despite a less than brilliant performance, Lazio brought home a precious success in Lecce, making up for the heavy defeat suffered against Inter. Mark Barons he is satisfied with the result: “Complicated match, they bothered us by verticalizing and attacking the ball. The team knew this and brought in as much quality as possible – he says at the end of the match – In the second half we crossed a lot, we needed more quality. This team had 10 wins and 2 defeats in 58 days. You bring these matches home with consistency and by not leaving the match, congratulations to the boys.” Specifically on Lazio's performance: “The team was a little less brilliant, in the locker room I said that at this moment it is important to recover energy. We have many games under our belt, this leads us to be dirtier. In the second half I changed a bit, they had close lines. The team believed in it, we conceded a goal on the first shot. I told them during the break to stay clear and the team found a match of mentality and conviction.”
“We have many commitments but we have the ability to alternate”
In any case, the Lazio family will have a more than peaceful Christmas: “I go to my family, I take a break too. We are a group that works and feels good together. There are many commitments and many travels, Dia and Castellanos are paying for their national team call-ups and long trips. However, the team has the ability to alternate, thus managing to make up for it.” A risk taken in the final with Kaba's crossbar and in recent times on a conclusion from Rebic which could have been done better: “I agree, but at that moment we had Romagnoli who had just made a tackle and Noslin who was practically stationary. We had to bring more pressure, we could manage better and we did well on that ball.”
