Francesc “Cesc” Fabregas, assistant coach of Como, commented on the upcoming Roma-Bayer Leverkusen match, first leg of the Europa League semi-finals, during an event organized by UEFA called “Rent-A-Player”. This is his thought reported by alfredopedulla.com:
“It will be a very good match. It’s very, very conflicted. It’s a 50-50. Obviously Bayer Leverkusen is having a fantastic season. Having already won the championship, I think it will be a fantastic match, because Roma are also growing with the new coach, Daniele De Rossi. It’ll be interesting, I’ll be in front of the TV watching it. I think Leverkusen, when you watch them play, are at a moment where everything they touch turns to gold. They can continue to win, even when they are down to 10 men. They have a great mentality. They feel this moment, where everything you touch can turn into a goal. Or if something ever happens, they will find a way, and this is very important for a team when they are in this state of form, in these dynamics and I’m sure they will try to implement it until the end of the season and win something too important, in addition to the championship.”
