" If we look at the numbers, Cagliari is in a position in the standings that does not reflect them. The production of the game is worth the top of the class and what we concede is little, but it is not enough to do things well, at a certain point you need more practicality, hunger and nastiness to bring the episodes to your side ."
Davide Nicola is not here to talk about a crisis, despite the three defeats in a row that have caused the rossoblù to fall to third-last place in the standings.
And on the eve of Cagliari-Inter he also talks about the match in Venice: «We went for the three points, and I don't think we've ever dominated the first half like this . But when you play half an hour like this you have to do badly. We also did well defensively, but we suffered in the only situation». The problem, in short, lies in the «key episodes», both in the defensive and offensive phases, that Cagliari «can't bring to their side» .
Against Inter a prohibitive challenge? " We are facing the best team in the championship but we will try to get points. We need a spirited, clear-headed, attentive, aggressive game, without stopping to try to play but doing it with attention and understanding the key moments of the match ."
The Nerazzurri are a team "consolidated in their men and in their game, very good at building, at encouraging you to go and get them to play cat and mouse, we have to be very skilled. They are able to manage the ball and attack the depth with disarming ease, they know each other by heart ".
Tomorrow's match "must ignite the energy, it must be gratifying to think that to get the result you have to go further, do the things you have always done but with a different speed . The boys will do everything, you need quality and quantity, and the ability to read the most propitious moment".
Luvumbo aside , for the challenge scheduled for Saturday at 6pm at the Domus they are "all fit and ready" .
