The technician of the Genoa, Alberto Gilardinospoke to the microphones of Italia 1 at the end of the challenge lost on penalties against Sampdoria in the Coppa Italia. Here are his words.
Do we need to reset everything now?
“We have to do it, it’s normal to be bitter. We were in the game until almost the end, but right now we’re conceding goals too easily. It’s a moment of objective, clear difficulty, perhaps the first moment in my management. We have to keep a clear head in our judgments. Important players have left, others have arrived who must fit in as best as possible. In this type of match the categories are reset. We took the lead playing our game, we were a bit frenetic at times. We have to be good, me first, at transmitting positive energy. Because now Juventus is coming”.
With desire, can Genoa beat anyone? And if they don’t have it, can they lose to anyone?
“Yes, but in certain moments when you can’t put the race the way you would like, you start to involuntarily give up on certain aspects. We have to take this step of growth, but what you said is correct.”
Mentally, how do you want to work now?
“With Verona and then with Venezia it happened when we went behind that we lost something, today it happened after we went ahead. That 1% that we lose would allow us to do better in duels, be ferocious and win. It’s a step of maturity that this team must take. But there are many players who can make the difference”.
