“Three important points certainly for our classification against a very strong team that created great difficulties for us but the boys were good working a lot without the ball and the desire to stay in the game and we were rewarded”, continues the coach to Dazn’s microphones. . “The favorite for the Scudetto is Inter because they are a very strong team and the standings are still virtual. It would be more correct if they all had the same games played. Inter are very strong and are virtually even before and we still have to think to score a lot of points, “he says.
