The words of Claudio Ranieri after the heavy knockout of Cagliari at Ferraris against the Genoain the match that closed the 34th round of Serie A.
The match
“The highlights? They were better not to see them (laughs ed.). Genoa deserved it, they played well, but we didn’t do anything. It’s a shame because we wanted to score at least one point, but when you play against better people you just have to applaud. Our strength wanted to be aggression, but we didn’t succeed. Thorsby was put almost as a striker and it hurt us.”
The absences
“Mina gave us a lot, but we were missing a lot of people who make the team play well, some due to injuries, some due to flu. I renew my congratulations to Genoa and Gilardino for what he did with his team”
The championship
“I think it’s beautiful both for the safety zone and for Europe. I’m not sure how many points are needed for salvation, maybe 36-37. It depends on the direct clashes, now we have one with Lecce. We have to go step by step, trying to score as many points as possible.”
The future
“A job awaiting me is more psychological than recovery work for those who didn’t play today. Against Lecce, as we have been saying for a long time, it will be a match of incredible weight. They are almost safe, we are not there yet. We have to do our best against a very good team. We must have the desire to save ourselves, we must have no regrets and fight until the last second. Then we’ll see if the points won will allow us to stay in Serie A.”
The new misters
“I like Gilardino a lot, as does Palladino. They are doing well, both having arrived from the Primavera and leading a first team naturally. Congratulations”.
