The Frosinone coach Eusebio Di Francesco he spoke to DAZN after the 3-0 win against Salernitana: “It was important to win and it wasn’t a given, given the difficulties of the second half against a team that came to play and was mentally free. We approached the match well, then we dropped back and missed a few restarts and this put Salernitana back in the game. However, the objective was to win and we also did it to a large extent. The team is also working well in defence, where we are more solid than in the past.”
The players deserved the victory for how hard they are working.
“These guys are doing their best to reach the final goal. We’re going game after game looking at the goal of salvation.”
We saw a mature Soulè.
“The other day he told me that he would take the penalty, he thought I would change my mind but I told him that I had faith in him. He has shown that he deserves this opportunity. He is also maturing on a defensive and team level. A lot of young players are developing who are not used to this category, to working more as a team than individually. I see great commitment and cohesion from everyone.”
Brescianini is also important in defense.
“We are adopting a new way of playing that ignores his characteristics. He plays both a striker and a midfielder. He is one of those who have grown the most, he comes from Serie B, he had never played in such an important championship. He has great humility and is a great worker. It’s all about daily work, he never holds back and can still improve on a technical and tactical level.”
Is the team mentally ready for the final rush?
“The mental aspect is fundamental in the footballer, it makes the difference. 30% technique, 30% physical and 40% head.”
About Zortea.
“He’s from Trentino like my mother, he’s also a great worker. He never holds back, sometimes he hurt himself so as not to miss even one training session. I can only say good things about this team, the final goal will then enhance the team even more their attitude”.
On Salernitana.
“It’s sorry but in life there are victories and defeats. Strength lies in starting again. Colantuono was my coach at Perugia, I had and am fond of Fazio and Manolas with whom I spent wonderful moments at Roma. The emotional bond remains beyond of football”.
