Bologna, Thiago Motta on Orsolini: “The credit is his alone and the commitment he put in”

The day before the championship for Bologna, which on Monday evening at the Dall’Ara hosts Juventus without Allegri in the penultimate match of the Serie A championship. With Champions League qualification already achieved, a great celebration is expected at the rossoblù’s home: “It was a beautiful week – the coach underlines Thiago Motta in the press conference -, the credit is also mine but the protagonists are the kids. I enjoyed a beautiful moment, something historic that we proved was possible. Now let’s think about finishing as best we can, finishing third in the championship would be to add something else to all the fantastic things we’ve done… always without any pressure.”

How is Zirkzee and a comment on not being called up to the European Championship?
“Joshua is recovering, I’m sorry about the injury and about the European Championship but this is football too. But he mustn’t stop.”

Will Soumaoro and Karlsson have space in the next matches?
“Everyone can have space. Souamoro is well and will be called up.”

Orsolini said that it was thanks to her that he understood the importance of living every training session like a match
“I thank him, but the truth is that the credit is his alone and the commitment he has put in this year like the others.”
