“The coach of “Genoa” commented on the draw with “Parma””, — write: sport.ua
“The whistle is fair on the team’s performance, but not on the attitude. I understand the booing, we have to respect that the fans voiced it. They expected better from us, and from the first minutes we tried to win the match more than Parma. For them, the ball is suitable, but not for us. We created scoring opportunities and took risks.
In today’s match, we had a numerical advantage and hoped to score. I released players to give width and play one on one. We must accept criticism and work.
Korne, or anyone else who takes the ball to take a penalty, has trust and responsibility. Kornet didn’t score, and it won’t be the first or the last miss. Other players have made mistakes before. This is football. It’s not his fault we didn’t win. We must continue and move forward.
I always said this season would be difficult. In terms of creativity, we experienced difficulties. We created four big chances but their goalkeeper made a lot of important saves. There was a lack of aggression to make a difference. It is important to be patient and united in the search for victory.
We have to take the whistle. The fans came with positive energy, but unfortunately we couldn’t get the three points. I feel sorry for the players and the fans. However, the attitude was correct. We prepared well, we even had a chance with a penalty. When the opponents changed to five defenders, we immediately brought many players into the penalty area, but there was a lack of aggression for a goal.
It’s easy to talk today. We played the right match, but we lacked a goal. There was a lack of aggression in the penalty area. Parma defended well and I wouldn’t change a thing about today’s match. There is a lack of experience that can be gained now, even in possession. We are in a difficult period,” said Patrick.
