At the end of Napoli-Roma, the Giallorossi coach Claudio Ranieri made some statements to Sky Sports. These are his words: “If we go back, we have problems and we played against a team fighting for the Scudetto, so I’m happy. We made some mistakes that we will analyze, but the desire to get back up was there: I’m positive “
The changes at half-time?
“We wanted to keep the ball more and so it was, we tried to block the diagonals. Often Lukaku was alone or against two of us, I tried to square behind and then sink.”
Dybala?
“I risked it to go all out in the final. I was scared, but he hadn’t felt any pain since yesterday. He should be at 100% by this week and we’ll see for Tottenham.”
The big names in the locker room?
“They must have personality to help themselves and others. I found a closed team, I tried to give them serenity and joy in playing, in fact in the second half we moved the ball more. We didn’t give Napoli too many chances, we had some us too. Come on, we have to know how to react.”
