COACH DI FRANCESCO'S PRE-MATCH PRESS CONFERENCE

On the eve of the upcoming league match, which will see Venezia face AS Roma at the “Pier Luigi Penzo” Stadium tomorrow at 12:30 PM, Venezia head coach Eusebio Di Francesco analyzed the team's current form and the opponent in a press conference.

Eusebio Di Francesco
"Roma is a solid team, led by a coach of the highest level and experience. They will come to Venice with the intention of winning, but we also need points, and we certainly won’t hold back because we want to give our best, as we have always tried to do. However, what we absolutely must do is minimize mistakes, because otherwise, it becomes difficult.

Compared to the first-leg match, Roma has gained great 'flexibility.' Mister Ranieri is a coach who knows how to adapt the team based on the characteristics of both his players and his opponents, often changing the formation during the match. This ability to switch playing systems is one of his best qualities. In addition to having high-level players, Roma has regained a sense of calm within the club and in the way they approach matches.

I want to tell everyone that now more than ever, we must stay united, without losing cohesion. Young players, with their determination and desire, can often provide that extra spark to climb up the standings. That’s why it is essential to support and encourage them. My job is to help them express themselves at their best, and I can proudly say that I have a team made up of serious and professional young men."
