Has Lazio arrived at the right moment in his career to complete a journey or is it a bit of a coincidence? This is one of the questions asked at the press conference Marco Baronicoach of Lazio that on the eve of the Europa League match against Ludogorets – match valid for the fifth day of the ‘Championship Phase’ – he responded like this: “No, no coincidence. Things never happen by chance. They happen because you want them, you look for them. It’s the strongest team I’ve coached and I believe it still has important margins. Everyone’s attention is on work.”
At a European level, the Italian teams are almost all doing well. How much is this Lazio becoming a European team?
“It’s a complex question. We have a strong mentality, in Italy we have this aspect that also distinguishes us in Europe and is the reason why many teams get to the end. I find it wonderful to play in Europe, competing against each other is extraordinary. For us it’s a great opportunity for individual and collective growth which we then find in the championship. We want to play to the end in every competition, we owe it to ourselves, to the club and to our fans. We are getting some good responses.”
