"We have to be charged, but with balance. Without frenzy. And the public must be good at supporting us, especially the younger ones". Davide Nicola thus dictates the line in view of the Cagliari match tomorrow at the Domus against bottom club Monza (kick-off set for 12:30) from the press room of the "Crai Sport Center" in Assemini.
A fundamental match, needless to say. But the Cagliari coach tends to ease the tension, at least before entering the field, and to those who ask him if it is a must win at all costs, he responds like this: " There are nine games left and they are all very important for us . We have a clear objective and we train to reach it as soon as possible. I don't know how many points we need, and honestly I don't care. I only care that my team is focused on what we are doing", says Nicola.
A providential break, it allowed three key players to recover . « Especially this week Zappa and Luvumbo worked with us with the right energy . Coman is gritting his teeth a bit, but I'll take him with me anyway », Nicola announces. Obert, therefore, is the only rossoblù unavailable. Mina, who joined the group only yesterday, came from Colombia with fury . « Luckily he only played 35 minutes for the national team, he arrived full of energy. Motivated. Focused. And he recovered well ».
