BERGAMO (ITALPRESS) – “Unfortunately it is a fascinating game against a strong and healthy team, who plays well in football, against a very good coach: we have to make an important game, we keep going, the goal is to play it and be competitive and try to pass the turn. It will not be easy, but we will try with all our strength.” He told Sportmediaset’s microphones the technician of Atalanta, Raffaele Palladino, on the eve of the Italian Cup match against Juventus, a race valid for the quarterfinals and scheduled tomorrow in Bergamo.
The Nerazzurri are reducted from the draw of Como in the championship and Monday will host the Cremonese, in the middle of the challenge that is worth the semifinals of Coppa Italia and that, inevitably, puts the technician in front of the choices of training. “I have a wide and competitive rose, I have the embarrassment of choice, tomorrow will go to the field the best for this game, I am sure that those who will go down in the field will give the maximum, we face a very strong team, I expect a great spirit, a great intensity. Raspadori? He did not play in Como, because it was a particular game in which we stayed in 10. Let’s see tomorrow.”.
About Como, the expulsion of Ahanor has definitely conditioned the race. “There will be no fines, he knows about the lightness he did, I liked how he reacted the team, he also played for him, we tried to win it even in ten men. The boy has already understood, we put this episode behind us.” Palladino returns to the challenge of Coppa Italia, focusing on the work carried out by the Bianconero colleague. “ Juventus has built a great team, with strong young people growing up, with the arrival of Spalletti has reached an important awareness. The merits are given to Spalletti, he did a great job.”.
Palladino also talks about the sale of one of the stars of the team that chose the Athletic Madrid. “Lookman had this request, the boy I wanted to go and the company satisfied him. I am happy with the rose I have, I am satisfied, it was what I wanted, I have a strong and wide rose, 21 players of movements and 3 goalkeepers, there is need of all. The important thing is the spirit and continuity of growth we are having. Returning to Lookman, actually when he left we were away, I got to say goodbye, but we were struggling with the important game of Como. We make him a great wolf for his future.”.
