Verona, Paolo Zanetti regrets the'only mistake

These are the words of Verona coach Paolo Zanetti to Sky Sport after the 1-0 defeat against Roma at the Stadio Olimpico.
“We took the goal on the’only mistake, the only blunder we made in a game, in my opinion, that was important, a game where we were in it against a high level Roma, but today we played a game with courage”.
“We really came here to really try also to play the game for a good part, we also lacked the important kick, normal that when you then leave space in the restart of such players, then afterwards all the quality comes out”.
“With the game we came many times to bring many men in Roma’s half of the field, in the area we made a lot of crosses, we often missed the last pass, we probably lacked a little bit’ of quality, with the understanding that we were also meeting a team that has players of the highest level”.
“So it wasn“t easy, however, I can’t say anything about the commitment and the desire to bring home points, then the details, as we know, make the difference in these matches””
concluded Zanetti.

Roma, Claudio Ranieri dreams of Champions League and reaffirms his future

These are the words of Roma coach Claudio Ranieri to the microphones of Sky Sport after the 1-0 victory against Verona.
“Champions League? It’s not easy, it’s one thing to say these guys are doing an extraordinary thing, it’s another to say we’re going to Champions.
“There is the dream, then there are the thoughts and then the’action. It is not a walk in the woods. We started the championship badly, but it has to finish possibly well”.
“There’s a good group, that’s why I don’t stay. Then you have to give the new coach time to shape the team, with me it would be a lost year.
“We have a lot to do, right to step aside with a coach who knows what he wants”. On the possibility that Ancelotti might take his place, Ranieri says: “I don”t talk about the new coach anymore.

Ferrari’s disappointment, Lewis Hamilton demoralized

Here are the words of Ferrari’s team principal Frederic Vasseur and the two Maranello factory drivers Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton, who were fourth and seventh, respectively, at the end of qualifying for the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix at the Jeddah circuit.
“We are three tenths off pole position, it is true, but in the race we have a good pace. Since the beginning of the season we have always gone better in the race than in qualifying, so tomorrow anything is possible. It is true that we struggle a bit’ in Turn 1 but on the rest of the track we are on the times of the others.”
“Hamilton is almost nine tenths off pole and I think that because he still does not have total confidence in the car, he struggles a little bit’on this track so limited by the barriers– continued Vasseur -But in Bahrain Lewis made a good comeback and we think it can happen again tomorrow”.
“The disappointment is high, because it was a track on which we had higher hopes – added Leclerc -. Today is confirmation that we lack potential, although I am happy because I found the right direction in qualifying. It is difficult, but I extracted the maximum in my lap, risking going to the wall two or three times.”
“It was a tricky qualifying as always – says Hamilton -. This weekend I was nowhere to be found, I couldn’t even grow that much from session to session, however, I am grateful to have entered Q3, given the level. The last lap was not spectacular, but improvements we are making.”
