The Hellas coach: “The team gives everything, but we have to score the goals”

Paolo Zanetti comments on Verona’s 3-1 defeat in Como in the press conference.

“It is clear that the occasions we also had them tonight to score – says the Verona coach – Como is a great team, we shouldn’t forget that, but today we had clear opportunities without being able to exploit them. We have scored two avoidable goalswith the team lined up on two soft crosses and we were light on the marking. Getting a result here is difficult in itself, but today we are not concrete.

We don’t have to never lose faith. Now we will have the very difficult match against Inter, this is Serie A. We should have won some matches by a landslide and that didn’t happen, and this has put us in a difficult situation in the standings. But the team gives everythinghe doesn’t make a mistake in his attitude, he creates against everyone. We have to grow, I always say the same things, but we have to score goals.

On the first goal Valentini slipped, but you can’t catch this netas well as the second goal. Bella Kotchap played a good game anyway, we tried to bring home points against a team that is probably the best in terms of ball possession. But they struggled to create situations. We had 5-6 opportunities and we didn’t take advantage of them, but we deserve a different ranking.

Serdar he gave me the availability to play even though he had an adductor problem. In the middle we suffered a little, apart from Nico Paz’s central chances, however, we conceded two goals that shouldn’t have been conceded. We managed to shoot, but the difference lies in the goals scored. It fits in Como, given the caliber of the team.

Injuries? Akpa he took a very strong hit on the kneecap in the warm-up, also resulting in a cut. Serdar we will try to have him for Lecce. But there are no serious things, we will go on the pitch against Inter with whoever is better.”
