Lazio, the former footballer makes some statements talking about the Biancocelesti and the Champions League objective that is still feasible
He spoke to -’s microphones Galderisiwho took stock of the Lazio on the eve of this evening’s match against Verona, focusing on the Champions League area
LAZIO – VERONA – I expect a very difficult match for both teams to play. We have to look at the physical and mental condition of both Lazio and Verona and I believe that the Biancocelesti gave a great performance against Juventus and would have deserved something more. However, everything was nullified by Milik’s goal, but Tudor’s team came out with their heads held high. Verona, on the other hand, is having a good championship, especially considering the difficulties and changes undergone during the season. Difficult match to decipher, but both teams play a lot and time is running out. We will have to do things well, because the episodes will also be decisive. They are two teams that need points and enthusiasm
CHAMPIONS AREA – Champions? There are 5 games left until the end of the season and there are a lot of points up for grabs. Personally, if I were in the Lazio locker room, I would continue to strongly believe in the possibility of reaching the Champions League. Anything can still happen, but it is clear that the goal that Roma scored in the last second against Udinese gave even more strength to a team that has completely changed since De Rossi’s arrival. He entered on tiptoe and managed to make an incredible turn. There are moments in which enthusiasm must be recreated through work, sacrifice and the belief that we can do something important. Then you have to come face to face with concreteness and sometimes you end up taken aback. From my experience, however, I continue to say that Lazio must believe in it
TUDOR – Tudor? I must admit that I am a great admirer of Maurizio Sarri and I am very sorry for how it ended. But times move, things change, and we need to look forward. I think with Tudor coming in, the company showed that they wanted to do things a certain way. There are environments in which it is easier to work and others in which you have to find the right connection with the players, but I believe that the Croatian is a coach who can do great things
CASTELLANOS – Castellanos owner? There are times when even great champions can get into difficulty and Immobile will now have to be good at managing it. Taty has made an incredible escalation and the two goals against Juventus demonstrate how much this player can give to Lazio. It’s obvious that Tudor is looking for just that. This team needs someone to throw it in. However, I believe that Immobile will be able to overcome this moment. I’ve been through a similar situation too and I know what it means. He just needs to find certainties again, but you will see that he will still do something important. I don’t know if in Rome with Lazio or somewhere else, but it will be enough for him to clear his mind to do important things again
