On the eve of the all-Lombardy match against Mantua, Rolando Maran was coach at Brescia to speak at a press conference to take stock of the situation regarding the confrontation. Where, moreover, he will challenge one of his former players, the Virgilian coach Davide Possanzini: “It’s a pleasure to meet him again – we read on bresciaingol.it -. There has been a relationship with him that has lasted since that year, but I had bonded a lot with the whole group of which he was a leader. I’m happy to see him in the limelight. He has followed a path congenial to a coach: assistant, youth sector and now first team. He is demonstrating with his ideas that he can achieve important results. Then beyond the compliments and relationships that remain, Tomorrow I want to give him a sorry. It’s not Maran against Possanzini, but Brescia against Mantua.”
The discussion then shifts to the match: “We prepared the match with the desire for continuity, with the right expectation of arriving at the match. Training with the rhythms that we then need to put into the match. Once one match is over, we already have the other in mind Mantova has achieved great results at home. We need to be even more vigilant because we must always exceed our bar and not stop at what we have done. If we want to be ambitious in our head we must have the fire inside, which pushes us to be better and better”.
He then notes to the squad: “Having the players available helps to raise the level. During the week the players can have ups or downs. Last year we lacked many players in the same department so you have to pull the strings. When you have everyone available increases the possibility of raising the level. And if we don’t suffer from the absence of Galazzi it is also thanks to the club, which has added a few more players to the squad. You have never heard me complain about the absence of one rather than the absence. other. We have never prepared or commented on a match based on who wasn’t there. I coach a responsible group, which always manages to do well.”
He concludes: “You have to dream and also be visionary. We must never set limits. We shouldn’t feel satisfied with training and being just good little soldiers. It takes anger and blood in the eyes, like the one we had on Monday.”
