VENEZIA-GENOA: POST MATCH

At the end of Venezia-Genoa, Day 5 of the Serie A Enilive 2024/25 championship, which finished with the result of 2-0, Venezia coach Eusebio Di Francesco, Gianluca Busio and Antonio Candela analyzed the match as follows.

Eusebio Di Francesco:
"Today, we showed that we are not the team that was seen at San Siro, and I am very happy about that. Beyond the result, I saw a team that trained at its best throughout the week in every aspect, and this is a very important factor. We demonstrated that we are a great team in terms of attitude and behavior. The missed penalty could have brought us down, but instead, we did well to stay in the game, continuing to play with intensity, strongly seeking the goal.
In matches, we cannot get the attitude and mentality wrong, and I will not compromise on these two aspects.
This week, together with the club, we struck the right chords, knowing that this group is on a path of growth.
I’ll end by saying that I’m truly happy for the self-confidence winning this match can give us."

Gianluca Busio:
"It was the perfect day. It’s true that we started the season a bit slowly, but today it was important to win. We worked hard to get this victory in front of our fans, and I’m very happy about that.
The coach worked a lot on our mentality, and our challenge now will be to maintain and improve this level throughout the season.
I’m really happy to have reached the milestone of 100 appearances with the Venezia shirt. I want to thank the coach, my teammates, the directors, and the ownership that allowed me to achieve this goal."

Antonio Candela:
"Today, we really wanted to give joy to our fantastic fans, and we succeeded, giving a boost to both the standings and morale.
We worked a lot on the mental aspect, and I think today we saw the reaction to the Milan match.
After the missed penalty, we had a reaction like a great team, continuing to push forward, strongly seeking the goal and the victory."
