D’Angelo, Masucci and Calabresi comment Como-Pisa
From the press room, the Nerazzurri coach Luca D’Angelo together with the players Masucci and Calabresi commented on Pisa’s draw on the Como field. Their statements are below.
D’Angelo: “Too bad about the draw. It is true that there were not many seconds left to go, but these things happen. The team had reacted well and even went behind undeservedly. they had many chances to equalize, even before Tramoni’s goal. Then we risked, but we also took the game in hand. It has now happened, but we have to accept it and move forward, already looking to the next game. Masucci’s goal was extraordinary, without a doubt. I threw Moreo into the fray, he played well, now he will have the next few days to get to know his teammates better. The team played a good game if we evaluate the result. We had to manage the last few minutes better, but in football it happens that we concede in the end. We have the recriminations because we were ahead until the end, but it must also be said that up to 1-0 we were playing well. The most important thing is that the team played a tough game on a difficult field where it’s not easy to play football against an equally difficult opponent. The team satisfied me as a whole and we had even turned the game around. Out of 100 minutes of a game, I think there are more positive things than negative ones. The races are all complicated, but we can win in Genoa. We have to play a good game to bring home the victory. If the market is closed? I think and I hope so”.
Masucci: “The goal should see him again, maybe I was even a little lucky. Unfortunately the real joy didn’t come, I was hoping to go home with the 3 points after going down and reacting. Conceding goals hurts in the end, but we have to accept it and we have to win again. However, today was not an easy match, especially after a defeat, to start again. Then we also went down, but mentally we continued to grind the game and this is the most important thing. This final episode took away the joy we deserved”
Calabrian: “There is regret for this result. When you touch the possibility of 3 away points and draw in the last minute there is disappointment and anger. It’s up to us to transform everything into positive energy for a difficult and equally beautiful race like next Saturday’s. We suffered a lot from the changes of play, but we stayed in the game after the goal conceded, creating the conditions to straighten out the match. Masucci’s goal was fantastic, we know him and he always gives us something extra when he comes in, but also when he stays out. We hold on to it”
