Cagliari tried, but in the end it was Lazio who came away with three points from the Domus . For Davide Nicola, however, there is much to be saved: «I am really satisfied with the performance of my boys, I have to tell the truth», he assessed. «Unfortunately it was peppered with certain errors, which we must be careful about. The second goal is more due to our fault than theirs, but the team played and created. I am happy for Piccoli who scored: when we score I am always happy, then tonight we paid a heavy price for some incidents generated by a pinch of frenzy and casual situations».
Nicola looks to what will come on Sunday at 3:00 pm: «Let's move on to the next one, but this spirit is important», his thoughts on Parma. «We found ourselves facing a strong opponent, we can always do better but we must recognize that the difference in values objectively exists. If we saw less it is because we played a great match ».
The performance satisfies Nicola: «In the first half we dropped back and exposed the central band a bit too much, with Viola often having to play as the third midfielder. But against teams like Lazio we lose our center of gravity: the important thing is to be aggressive ». Instead, Nicola continues, «in two or three circumstances we were imprecise due to frenzy. We must be aware that matches must be read: we will learn to do it better and better, but in my opinion the match was played well».
Florinel Coman arrived from the market, and was made official a couple of hours before kick-off . "We have a precise identity: if I'm offered a player I know I can say what I think, otherwise I try to talk and understand", Nicola explained. "I'm curious: Coman is a winger who plays on the left and who has quality in one-on-one situations, as a pure winger. Let's see how he is and how he presents himself, obviously he will need a period of integration. Even if we don't have much time". On Luvumbo: "We hope to have him partially in the group this week, we've been missing him for seven games".
