External defeat for Verona. Marco Baroni’s team was beaten by Lazio at the Olimpico thanks to the goal for the Biancoceleste from former Zaccagni. This is the front page headline of today’s edition of The Arena: “Goal from Zaccagni, Hellas punished. The race for salvation remains tough.”
Baroni’s words
“We can’t lose confidence and identity, we shouldn’t be afraid. In the first minutes we dropped too low, then we changed and played man, so as not to give him too much dribble. The team did well. It’s a shame because in my opinion the match was in balance. We lost 2-3 balls that we knew we shouldn’t lose on the way out – Marco Baroni told DAZN – we needed to find an outlet underneath.
These balls penalized us because Lazio took advantage of them. The goal comes from a ball lost in the middle of the pitch. These mistakes will make us grow. But I liked the team, I liked the attitude. It would be a mistake to think today of being conservative, the team must have this spirit. We have the goal problem, but with this attitude we will find it.”
