Cagliari's regular season ends on Friday in Cosenza, almost a dress rehearsal in view of the next playoffs. And Ranieri wants new answers from his boys: «It's like a general rehearsal, a dry match from inside or outside. We have to go there with the desire to do well, with the same mentality and determination as in the last few games. We respect Cosenza, but we have to do our duty».

First Cosenza, then the playoffs: «No preference, whoever comes comes. We have to be ready knowing that it will still be difficult."

Attention to the Calabrians, but not only. Also for this reason Ranieri admits: «I will pay attention to yellow cards, I don't want to lose players who are warned (Makoumbou, Nandez, Luvumbo and Goldaniga) in the playoffs, I want to decide who plays and who doesn't».

Beware, however, of a Cosenza who plays Serie B with Cagliari: «A team that, in the second leg, has never lost at home. Team to be taken with a grain of salt, maximum concentration and determination will be needed. We will find a warm environment, like in Perugia and Reggio Calabria and so I hope the boys show the same determination. I want to win and I don't want regrets. Then we will accept the result».

Finally, a thought on the celebratory shirt dedicated to the day against homophobia that Cagliari will wear in Calabria: «We are all equal, all brothers. Unfortunately someone does not think so, we will try to change his mind.
