Lazio coach Marco Baroni revealed that Luca Pellegrini and Patric didn’t suffer any injuries against Ajax. The Biancocelesti had a night to remember in Amsterdam, extending their superb Europa League run by beating the Lancers by three goals to one.
Nevertheless, there were some fears over the two defenders who left the pitch while seemingly carrying knocks. But in his post-match press conference (via La Lazio Siamo Noi), Baroni discharged all concerns. The manager revealed that the two players were simply feeling the effects of slight physical problems.
Pellegrini and Patric asked me to replace them because they were both recovering from a small problem. The lads are fine, no one has suffered any injury.
Moreover, the 61-year-old is expecting to regain the services of another two Lazio players in the shape of Matias Vecino and Alessio Romagnoli ahead of Monday’s major Serie A contest against Inter.
I am very confident that I can also recover Vecino and Romagnoli.
The Uruguayan veteran has been out of action for several weeks with a muscle injury, while the Italian defender left the pitch in the second half of last Sunday’s Serie A showdown against Napoli after suffering a slight knock.
