The words of Lazio coach Marco Baroni to Dazn’s microphones at the end of the Serie A match against Juve: “The team, in my opinion, played a difficult first half. We thought about limiting them. We made a mistake on a ball on goal, but the team did not disunite. We made 29 crosses and created the conditions to equalize. Too bad that if we had scored earlier, we could have won. We are sorry because we wanted to win, but the team is there. Champions struggle? We are on an important path. If you get to play these games, it means you have made a great path. We missed a few home wins this year, but the performances were always important. We are saddened that we didn’t win with such a stadium and wonderful fans, but the performances have always been important and we have to get to the bottom.”
On Rovella’s change: “After that sending off I made certain changes because Vecino is a starter. He works as a halfback the way I like him, and I am convinced that the team, regardless of the numerical inferiority, raised the tempo with Pedro, attacking on the outside, and I know very well that Vecino can find the goal that way.”
Final comment on Dia: “We have used this solution on Dia before and in the first half he could have got to the goal a couple of times. They go down a lot and know how to restart with strength, quality and speed, but the changes of the players that would have given us more offensive rhythm sorry because we made a mistake in the goal right away.”
