VENEZIA-ATALANTA: POST MATCH

October 20, 2024

At the end of Venezia-Atalanta, Day 8 of the Serie A Enilive 2024/25 championship, which finished with the result of 0-2, Venezia coach Eusebio Di Francesco and Francesco Zampano analyzed the match as follows.

Eusebio Di Francesco:
"The approach to the game was the right one; we applied a lot of pressure in their half, but we were penalized by our mistakes on the two goals we conceded.
Maturity comes with experience on the field: we create several opportunities to score, but we lack determination in crucial moments, especially in the last 20 meters. Despite everything, we stayed in the game, even though we should have made better use of the chances we created.
It’s a shame that we made things difficult for ourselves; we need to be more decisive and concrete in the offensive phase.
It gives me confidence to see that the team is alive and continues to believe in the work it is doing. We must not give up; we need to focus on the final goal and not let ourselves be discouraged by the current situation.
Now we’re thinking about the match against Monza, where we want to redeem ourselves from these three consecutive defeats."

Francesco Zampano:
"We played a good first half, we were aware of Atalanta’s quality, both as a team and on an individual level.
We need to work even harder and with more dedication to reach our goal.
In Serie A, at this level, every small mistake can cost us dearly, but it’s still early, and there are many games ahead of us. We need to correct these inaccuracies and roll up our sleeves. The upcoming games will be important for our path."
