Farioli on response after City, Gimenez and André Silva: “We’re happy” | OneFootball

On Casa Pia’s transitions: “The two or three transitions we allowed came from major mistakes, misplaced passes, bad decisions; we never allowed them in good situations, with superiority. We have to be more alert, because it’s a part of the game where it’s important not to allow anything, and to have a structure to deal with it. When that fails, it’s important to have a top goalkeeper, like we do.”

Reaction to the defeat against City: “It’s always important to win, especially after a midweek game that took a lot of physical and mental energy out of us; the Champions League match was extremely tough. Today, coming here to play on a pitch without the proper conditions: dry, very hot. Last year we dropped points here… all the conditions were there for us to have a difficult game, and it was, but the team showed with maturity and consistency that it has the ability to respond to adversity.”

On Gimenez and André Silva: “The relationship is positive. Today they both scored, André from the start and Gimenez when he came on, and they had a positive impact on the team. It’s always good when a striker scores. We’re also waiting for Samu to return as soon as possible, so we keep moving forward; we’re trying to get Santi into the best shape possible, and André is giving us great continuity. We’re happy with their work and with the room for improvement we have collectively and individually.”
