Mattia Bortolussi in the post Padova-Monza
Congratulations for the goal but I imagine the mood isn’t the best.
It hurts a lot today, we went from winning 2-1 to losing 2-1 and it’s tough. We wanted to redeem Bolzano and I believe we can start again from today. It’s not easy to talk about attitude after a defeat but it will help us start again hungrier.
The fans applauded you today, they recognized that they saw the usual Padova.
Yes, we are not those from Bolzano, we have to start again and it will serve as a lesson for us to be more careful.
A difficult match to manage, maybe that ending sawed your legs off?
Yes, even though we tried in the last few minutes: I think it’s an important signal, we’re there until the end.
Sgarbi’s intervention?
I honestly didn’t even see it, it was all very fast.
What did you say to each other when you saw it go to VAR?
In those moments everything collapses, it hurts but we have to start again.
First time you take a penalty with Papu on the pitch: how did it go? Had you talked about it?
Yes, we talked about it but it’s the Coach who decides and we stick to what he says. I thank the match analysts Perrone and Voltan, it is with them that we prepare these situations.
Di Maggio often came forward today and had an important performance.
Papu also looks for the ball in midfield, the objective is to always try to bring another player into the area when Papu moves away, Di Maggio did this very well today.
We saw a good Padova, how much should you treasure this match, defeat aside?
Yes, today we gave a signal first of all to ourselves after Bolzano, we must start again from here.
This week two offensive men arrived, there are a lot of you forwards, what do you think? Could you change the module?
I don’t know what to say, the Mister makes the choices and I think it’s right that there are many of us, we will be under the Mister’s orders. We didn’t change the formation today, it will be up to him to decide.
