"A balanced match, but if anyone had to win it it was us." Walter Mazzarri commented with this sentence on last night's match between Cagliari and Turin which ended in a draw, 1 to 1.

"If we look at the chances and the statistics we shot more, we created more chances - said the rossoblù coach -. Then there is the fact that when you finish the game with three forwards, against a physical team like Torino, you risk a counterattack. But we have to risk something because we need these blessed three points ".

"We create opportunities in front of us, we have to fix the defensive balance, we get too low in certain circumstances" he added, and on Joao Pedro, who scored the goal: "He is a leader, a great player. I am convinced that Mancini will call him, he is good with his foot and head, he is a maneuvering center-forward, a technician, he scores goals and assists. In the national team he could be very well. "

“We tried, we needed the 3 points - concluded Mazzarri retracing the highlights of the match - I put Pereiro in the final just to try, I asked him to play the mezzala to try to make the 2 against 1 on the flanks. Grassi gave us balance but asked me to change. At that point I risked more by inserting Pereiro and not Deiola. It was necessary to take risks. Of the last 4 consecutive draws, 2 have failed to win. A team like ours at the bottom of the table always plays with two points as well and nobody does, not even the big ones. We finished the match with 3 forwards, creating lots of clean chances against a rival who has one of the best defenses in the league. Our match should be appreciated, I am convinced that with these performances there will also be full results that will help us get out of this situation ".
