Cagliari, Pisacane on Verona clash: Mina’s fitness, possible debut | OneFootball

Fabio Pisacane, coach of the Sardinian team, spoke at a press conference to discuss the upcoming match against Verona, scheduled for Sunday at 3:00 PM. Here are his statements.

Cagliari, Pisacane: “Here’s who won’t be coming with us! We need fury and energy”

The rossoblù coach spoke to the official Cagliari channels ahead of the match against the Venetians. Here are his words as reported by TuttoCagliari:

On the injured players: “Radunovic, Pintus, and Di Pardo are the ones who will remain sidelined, along with Mina and Deiola. The defender won’t be there, we shouldn’t insist. We have to manage Deiola because of a problem he had last week.”

He then commented on the opponents: “It’s one of our finals, we need fury and energy. I don’t want to be someone who stirs things up before the match, but we have to treat it that way. We have to prepare for it like any other. They are an opponent who have fewer points than they deserve. They’re a very well-tested team; last year they struggled a lot, but then they managed to save themselves brilliantly. Today they have a solid concept, especially reinforced by these young players who have developed an excellent XG, among the highest in Serie A.”

On Deiola: “He’s a guy who never holds back. He’s Sardinian, one of those who, when we don’t win, is the first not to sleep and to suffer. I promised myself not to focus on who’s missing. Alessandro is important, just like the others who can’t wait to get on the pitch.”

On the few goals scored so far: “I certainly don’t blame the players if they make mistakes; we risk making things worse. The important thing is to create; it’s a problem when you don’t even get there. Against Bologna, in the first half, we created something, while in the second half, with more forwards, we created less. We have to keep working; the goal will come. Certainly, the last 15/20 minutes kept me awake at night. As the leader of this team, I can’t allow the team to be passive. We can lose, but we have to know how to lose. I don’t want us not to do everything possible.”

On the possible debut of Juan Rodriguez: “He could also make his debut in Verona. He’s a potentially important player. He needs to be supported, just like others.”
