Mister Luca D’Angelo’s comments after Spezia-Reggiana: “After the red card, we dropped back, but you have to consider that the opponent also benefited from the numerical advantage and pushed forward, immediately finding the equalizer. That’s why the momentum of the game shifted; when it was 11 against 11, Spezia was clearly the superior team and deserved to be in front.
Three red cards in the first six matchdays? Playing with a man down is always tough, and right now it’s even more challenging. Earlier, we hadn’t even been at risk, but in football anything can happen, and the red card changed the course of the match. At times like this, it would almost be better to play with twelve rather than ten. We played 83 minutes a man down in Venice, and two other matches with at least one half in the same situation, it wouldn’t be easy for anyone.
The recent results haven’t been great. Losing in Venice while playing 83 minutes with ten men was almost expected; avoiding defeat would have been the exception. Today, though, while we were 11 against 11, we deserved to win. Even after going down to ten, we had a huge chance with Esposito, but the opposing goalkeeper was excellent. Now we need to keep this mentality and fix the areas that aren’t working.
Lapadula? I choose based on the match, and today seemed right for him. Besides scoring, he played very well, so substituting him was difficult.
Sarr? The role of a goalkeeper has changed; it’s not like it used to be. Now even they can compete for the starting spot. Against Palermo, we’ll see who plays, other teams rotate goalkeepers too, so we can afford to make our choice as well.
The antidote for being more aggressive even when down a man? It’s complicated to get the team out when the opponent is attacking. Also, many of today’s starters played the full 90 minutes against Venezia, also with ten men, so some fatigue may have set in".
