Genoa v Atalanta: De Rossi says, “We must be perfect” | OneFootball

On the eve of a very challenging match against Palladino's Nerazzurri, the Genoa coach spoke to DAZN, highlighting intensity, duels, and attitude as the keys to the game.

Genoa-Atalanta, De Rossi in the pre-match: “Against Atalanta, perfection is needed”

An extremely tough challenge awaits Genoa, as they face Atalanta led by Raffaele Palladino, a team revitalized by a change on the bench and already victorious against the Rossoblù in the recent Coppa Italia clash. Less than three weeks after that encounter, the Ferraris becomes the stage for a new high-tension confrontation, where the bar is inevitably raised.

Just minutes before the match, Daniele De Rossi clarified the type of performance required from his players: “Against such strong teams, we must reach a high level of perfection, and I think we can do it. Tonight will be a back-and-forth of duels and second balls.” Words that depict a physical, gritty game to be played with maximum focus.

The Rossoblù coach then praised the team's spirit: “I am loving every single tackle from the guys, the attitude is right: I believe the team resembles me a bit. Without the ball, we must be like this, football is moving in this direction.” A clear identity, based on aggression and sacrifice.

Finally, a comment on Ekuban: “I am realizing he is a serious player, someone I can rely on. When you play against teams that play man-to-man, you have to exploit their uncertainties.” Precise choices for a match that allows no lapses.
