His Cagliari today took a golden point at the Juventus Stadium with a view to the fight for salvation: at the end of the match Davide Nicola spoke to the microphones of Dazn to comment on the challenge. Here are his words: “Did I understand that we could draw? I would like to congratulate all my team, they know what I think of them. From a technical point of view, well it’s the third year that we’ve come here and we’ve found 3 different Juves. They have an important positional game and technical figure. Today we also tried the long ball, with chain games and game changes, we didn’t always succeed, for example on Cambiaso’s movement I didn’t like how we followed him. In the second half we got there expressed very well, it’s a shame about the 90th minute, it would have been exceptional to score at that moment.”
Were you not convinced about Juve’s penalty?
“Those who know me know that I never judge the referee’s actions, but from a technical point of view he doesn’t convince me due to a question of biomechanics. If I have to compete for a ball it’s obvious that I use my arms for momentum. If I then they put their hands on their shoulders, it shouldn’t be forgotten. Many coaches are of the same opinion as me, we discuss this fact, so if you don’t give me a foul for Gatti’s hands, you can’t even give the penalty. Then you clearly accept the referee’s decision The focal point is precisely the intervention in the athlete’s biomechanics. It is impossible to give a penalty if I suffer an intervention from behind that forces me to fall.”
What does this leave even?
“It allows us to go from 5 to 6, scoring points is always important for us. Scoring points means progressing and gaining confidence, but at the same time we want to be happy, but evaluating it as a micro-episode, one match doesn’t make you reach your goal “.
