The draw last night in Marassi does not clear away the doubts linked to the two consecutive defeats of Cagliari with Bari and Venice at Unipol Domus. But that of Genoa could be a starting point for Liverani 's rossoblù. A match between lights and shadows that against the Genoese griffins who have built a lot and achieved nothing, thanks also to the splendid form of Radunovic.
Zero goals conceded, but also zero shots on target. The glass half full is represented by the narrow escape: a further knockout would have been difficult, mentally, to overcome. And indeed it would have opened another week of worries and controversies. Liverani is confident, but asks for time and patience.
What worked?
The coach is happy with the redemption of the rear guard after the poker played from Venice to the Domus. Although it is true that Cagliari ran some danger and that Radunovic was among the best on the pitch : "We had an excellent defensive game - he said at the end of the game - it will be important to work on the balance between the two phases. With Venice we had a bad day and lost ourselves, this time we didn't concede a goal and once again demonstrated solidity as before. "
But there is still a long way to go : "We have to improve at the exit - added the coach - with the first play, there was space, more technical cleaning is needed because otherwise you will suffer against anyone. Whoever wins the ball must clean the sphere in order to then develop our game. To win the championships you need patience, we will make the budgets in a few months ".
He is already testing Brescia , explained the coach, "to give value to what has been done with Genoa". There is still some aftermath for the double misstep: "We pay for a bit of tension and pressure from the whole environment, we must understand that we can only build our future without looking to the past, that we cannot change. on the eighth day, until March there is time for everyone and therefore you need calm and a desire to work day after day ".
During the week Liverani will aim to recover the injured Barreca and Rog for the home match on Saturday (2 pm) against the swallows, currently fourth in the class.
