BOLOGNA (ITALPRESS) – “We believe, and we talked a lot about it, the possibility of filling this box of goals scored, because honestly it bothers us. We had the chance to score some, with sharp situations, and tomorrow we want to fill this box and also get the first win. We prepared ourselves to get this historic success and we want to keep this path alive, from tomorrow we want to start being more effective.” On the eve of Bologna-Lille, the fifth day of the Champions League, Rossoblù coach Vincenzo Italiano hopes first and foremost to end the goal fast to boost the Felsinei towards a qualification that is not yet compromised. The league wrinkles, with the expulsion of Pobega in the match with Lazio, are still alive: “What happened in Rome heavily penalizes the fate of a match and of the team, the head must always be used, in all situations. I had already told him at the end of the match that I was sorry, for us it is a commandment not to put the team in trouble with stupid situations. I’m talking about naive yellows and reds. The boy was sorry, dejected, he made this speech to the team and I am happy about it. It must not happen again, it’s the second time we go into such big difficulties and so it becomes hard. However, the boy is smart, he knows what I ask and I am convinced he will learn his lesson.” Then back to the Champions League: “Tomorrow is important, there are four games left. If the experts are right, that with 7-9 points you can pass the round and we are still in. Tomorrow will be another mountain to climb but we will try with all our means and all our will.” The French are proving themselves more than up to the Champions League: “Lille is a team with great players, strong players. They are doing well in the league, in Champions you all know that. It will be a tough game also because of the way they play, it’s a team that doesn’t make calculations. They are aggressive, they bring a lot of men above the ball line. I expect great pace and quality, so we also have to raise the level because to compete at certain levels you need a very high level.” What Urbanski lacks to play more is quickly said “He is a young guy, a 2004 who has a lot to learn still. He’s part of our roster and has to fight to earn his starting spot. When he has been called upon he has always done his part, but there are so many of them and there is great choice in the middle. He has to push hard to earn his keep. Skorupski? He can play, he had a strong form of flu that kept him out three days. Now he is back,” he concludes, “he is fine and available.”- Photo Ipa Agency -(ITALPRESS).
