Lazio returns to winning, Sarri: “It was a challenging evening, we were ‘ok’ in the first half, better in the second.” Vecino and Rovella? “Im happy for them both, because they played at a high level.”
Maurizio Sarri is finally satisfied with his team’s victory against Torino, whom they defeated 2-0. He stated, “It was a challenging evening, with many difficulties, we faced a tough opponent. We had an organized first half, and in the second half, we showcased our quality.”
Lazio managed to keep a clean sheet, and Sarri praised the team’s defensive solidity, saying, “The defense was put under little pressure, except for some scrappy balls. After the first goal, the players also relaxed from a competitive standpoint.”
Sarri’s decision to field Vecino, a midfielder capable of attacking the penalty area, paid off. Sarri explained, “Not just Matias, Kamada also has this characteristic. However, he doesn’t bring the physicality that Vecino does. Today, there was an attempt to find a midfield that would provide greater solidity to the team.”
“When the team works well, it becomes easier to credit someone. With today’s attitude, anyone who played would have made the team solid. I am pleased with Vecino and Rovella‘s debut from the first minute because he played at a high level.”
Regarding the potential partnership of Luis Alberto and Kamada, Sarri commented, “Kamada has played almost every game. He was absent because he got injured in the match against Monza, and we preferred not to play him today. But they can play together definitely, we saw that against Atletico Madrid.
