Genoa-Atalanta, Gasperini: “Proud of my team”

Despite only one point in two games, Atalanta coach Gian Piero Gasperini remains calm: “Tonight we played our game too, creating our opportunities especially at the beginning, then if you don’t break the game it becomes more difficult. game we also paid for Zapata’s injury. Also with a pitch like this it was difficult to keep the ball on the ground and our type of game suffered. This year we also lost a bit of danger on inactive balls: we have great specialists but then we fail to score.

With the departure of Zapata (adductor resentment) we also missed the aerial game and in this type of games you pay for it. Our left-handed people like to get the ball on them to enhance their great technical skills and are quite similar to each other, but we know this. Congratulations also to Genoa, if they continue so determined they will be able to reach salvation because this square deserves to be in Serie A. “

PERSPECTIVES

–

After a great 2021, it is already time to think about the prospects for the next year. “It is not easy to improve this team – admits Gasperini – what must never be lacking are ideas. We are happy because we have set the record for points in the first round. The only goal is to continue to see the team with this spirit and this compactness. Musso on the bench? We have a very strong goalkeeper, then it can happen that we are also unlucky and take strange goals and he got a little nervous. Sportiello worked very well and is good, today it was right so then Musso will come back in goal “.
