Atalanta, Palladino tells DAZN: “We won it the hard way, credit to Genoa” | OneFootball

After the last-minute arrival on Genoa’s field, Atalanta coach Raffaele Palladino spoke to DAZN’s microphones, where he congratulated his players for the three points earned.

Atalanta, Palladino to DAZN: “We won it with suffering, my compliments to Genoa”

These are the words of the Nerazzurri coach: “Did playing with an extra man hurt us? First of all, I want to congratulate Genoa, who put in a great performance with ten men against eleven. It wasn’t easy to break down their five-plus-three defense. We needed to be quicker in our play, to pass the ball better. In the first half, we were a bit sterile. In the second half, we were lucky at the start because Genoa could have taken the lead with Vitinha, and then we tried to put them under pressure. I tried to put on all the attacking players I had, and in the end, we broke the deadlock with a set piece. We certainly could have done better, but today the three points were extremely important.”

“Celebration? It’s not like me to celebrate so much, it’s the first time it’s happened and I usually prefer to stay calmer. Today I let myself go a bit and ran with the boys. We won it with suffering, Genoa also had a chance to score. Winning like this also toughens your character, it shows we have room to grow. There are ugly games, and if you win them, it gives you a lot of value. Winning was fundamental, now we only have direct clashes and we’re facing them differently compared to a month ago.”
