Cagliari, against Atalanta the heart is not enough. Mazzarri: "We would have deserved the same"
Rossoblù still last in the standings, the coach: "A good performance against an international level, the episodes didn't help us"
The heart, an all-out defense and Joao Pedro's seventh pearl of the season are not enough.
The fourth knockout in a row is an unappealable sentence and the ranking is increasingly merciless for Cagliari, still last. The one-two against Atalanta - signed by Pasalic first and then Zapata - is a blow also for the morale of a group with no more self-esteem.
And Walter Mazzarri this time, after the silence in Bologna, speaks: "We need to look at the performance rather than the classification - he explained - against an international level reality like Atalanta we had a good match, the episodes did not help us. Despite the injuries, it was a good performance, we deserved the same: there is the regret that in three games we deserved at least two or three points. If the episodes had helped us, like the chances of Bellanova and Pavoletti, we could have collected more. We have put them in difficulty without giving points of reference ".
But now what will the future be? "Before coming to Cagliari I had some important talks with the club - he replied -. Today, on the other hand, I congratulated the team, we fight and fight".
"At the moment - he added - we play every three days and incredible things happen, like Keita's abscess ". On the transition to 4-4-2: "We played like this against Lazio, I tried to make different choices but I lost fundamental players like Dalbert. Some tactical changes are required." Now there is the national break ("We have many players called up, and it's good but we don't have the week to prepare"), the second half will offer matches against Sassuolo, Salernitana and Verona: "We hope to recover fundamental players", concluded Mazzarri.
