EPISODES
—
Crazy game. Empoli specialist in comebacks. Episodes that decided the game. First the red in Parisi, then the one in Esposito. However, the team managed to stay in the game and brought home a very precious point for how the game was going. “This match shows that if we’re not at 100% we’re vulnerable. We first suffered a red card and then Sunday’s goal. It could have been a knockout but, net of the episodes, Empoli played an excellent game. I was serene , I had the feeling of being able to resume this match because we had the ball in hand. The boys got the most out of it, with the desire to play football. And in the long run, this choice rewarded us. If the match had lasted a little ‘ do more, once we reached the draw we could also have won it”.
CHARACTER
—
Net of the result, Empoli once again shows a precise identity in the game. Forms and schemes in the final left room for the greatest common denominators of this team. Comebacks and character. “The team played the excellent game I expected. We know how to do business and we succeeded again today. In the interval I made a speech in terms I can’t repeat but I asked for aggression. I don’t think Spezia have chose to crush, rather I think it was we who never let them leave their half with dribbling and building up the game Empoli are a well-rounded team and even the players who come on from the bench have shown themselves capable to make a difference. I’m happy.”
