Italy-Macedonia, Jorginho: ‘I will think all my life about the two missed penalties: it hurts too much’

The blue midfielder comments on the defeat against Macedonia as follows: “We created a lot, dominated the game, but we couldn’t finish it, it’s a reality that needs to be said”. Verratti: “A nightmare”

Jorginho comments on the defeat with tears in his eyes. “Difficult to explain, difficult to find answers, it hurts, it hurts a lot. Speaking of football, we created a lot, dominated the game, but we were unable to conclude, it is a reality that must be said – explains the Chelsea midfielder -. We have always expressed a good football, but in the last few matches we have had problems in the conclusions ”.

Penalties

The two missed penalties against Switzerland in recent months are a huge boulder. “Honestly it is difficult because we also have to look at reality, I get in the way too – he concludes – it hurts me when I think of the two missed penalties, I still think about it and I will think about it all my life unfortunately. Failing to help your team twice weighs heavily on you. Now it is said that we must go on, but it hurts just the same “.

Verratti

Even the face of Marco Verratti is a whole program. “It went wrong, and it’s hard to accept it. We have gone from the greatest joy of a few months ago with the victory of the European Championship to today. But I am always proud of my teammates. Everyone knows they gave their all, tonight was not enough. Questions have to be asked, of course. We were stronger than Macedonia, we had to score and also immediately. Then the final goal was a nightmare, crazy ”.
