Gianluca Manciniwho scored against Roma in the Europa League match drawn in Belgium, spoke like this in the mixed zone at the end of the match: “When you don’t win, disappointment, sadness, frustration sets in, for the football teams, for the players, for the coaches , goes on the pitch to win, to bring home three points, they come with difficulty, there is frustration on certain occasions and a lot of anger. But you have to try to bring home, because they are, as I said and repeat, the most important thing important at this moment”, the words collected by VoceGialloRossa.it.

On the exclusion of Hummels.
“I am an admirer of Mats because I am smaller than him, I saw him when I was at the bar with my friends, I saw him during the Champions League final. I feel like calling him “the professor” because the way he presents himself is a champion He has integrated very well into the group, he is a leader in this. Even if he isn’t playing much he is very positive, he also talks to us a lot, he tries to cheer us up. Then there are the technical choices and I just watch , I can’t answer.”

On the goal.
“No, certainly my goal counts up to a certain point. It was more important to win. And yes, maybe on occasions we perhaps deserved a little more. It was a tough match, a fight, the pitch was what it was. We tried to do the most of what the coach asked of us. We are disappointed and angry with the result, because we wanted three points.”

Do you still believe in the European journey?
“We believe in it, we know that we will have some very tough matches against the strong teams and we will try to turn the situation around to move forward.”

About Juric.
“We follow the coach, we try to do what he asks of us, what he prepares to the best of our ability.”
