Sampdoria Coach Luigi Del Neri: Antonio Cassano Remains An Integral Part Of My Team
The Doria tactician praised his men after coming from behind to oust a struggling Lazio side…
By Stefano Federici
“I hope we continue with this mentality and desire, which enabled us to pick up an important three points this afternoon,” he declared to SkySport shortly after the game.
“Despite going behind, I thought the boys responded brilliantly and we fully deserved the win today.
“I am very happy with the opening goal as [Stefano] Guberti certainly deserves a bit a joy after having toiled to find space in recent weeks.
The coach was then probed on the condition of Antonio Cassano, after the fantasista returned to action for the first time since January.
“Cassano is still rediscovering his form but he remains and important part of this squad. He will certainly be lending even more of a hand in the coming weeks.”
