BERGAMO (ITALPRESS) – “It’s a Champions game, we haven’t closed the qualification talk yet, tomorrow could be a decisive day. Sturm Graz? Last year we had two balanced games, at home we won 1-0, a few players changed. It’s a first team in their own country, in Champions are all very balanced matches and they only scored 3 points, but in all the matches they lost by a narrow margin.” Gian Piero Gasperini is keeping the level of attention high on the eve of the match against Sturm Graz that could meanwhile guarantee a pass to the play-offs. “I expect a fresh team, which is eager to play, after a period of inactivity, I expect a match on the athletic level prepared – he adds – We must be very careful, find great concentration and attention, we know it will be a match with difficulties. We cannot make a mistake because of the importance, to close the qualification discourse that is not yet closed.” Atalanta is also called upon to redeem the latest disappointing results in the league. “But we are performing at a high level, both with Napoli and Juve the performance was never lacking. When you can’t excel, not losing is important,” stresses Marco Carnesecchi, among the Dea’s most in-form players. “Last year was one of the most important, I learned on the field about emotional management, knowing how to take over. Rui Patricio is a special guy, a special athlete, we are helping each other a lot,” he adds about the competition in the squad. And going back to the Champions League, “the important thing tomorrow will be to be ready, hopefully it will be a good game to watch, a game that will bring us good energy for the next ones as well.” – photo Ipa Agency -(ITALPRESS).
