“Aesandro Bastoni and Giacomo Raspadori confessed that they received slapas from the trainer”, – WRITE: Sport.ua
After the final whistle, the Italian players admitted that the head coach hit them several times in the break of the duel. Giacomo Rasadori and Alessandro Baston said this:
“I have never played Gattuso team, but I can imagine how his partners were. You do not imagine how much determination and sustainability he gave us in the national team. Gennar hit us – there were several slaps. Perhaps that is what we needed to truly wake up and show a decent game, ”Baston said.
“These were real slaps, I got on the nape of the neck. During these days he changed a lot. We are talented football players, we just need to stand on the field to the full and prove it.
Against Estonia, we played a quality game from beginning to end, because five goals are difficult to score against such a team. We need to believe that we are on the right way to move forward, ”Rasadori confirmed.
