POST MATCH | Mazzitelli and Luperto from the pitch

Luca Mazzitelli (named MVP) and Sebastiano Luperto are the rossoblù players speaking on the pitch after the 1-0 victory over Juventus.

MAZZITELLI
“For me, for all of us, it’s truly a wonderful night. We know Juventus, they’re a very strong team, we knew we had to give everything and more. The Coach? He makes us understand the importance of having high, solid, positive values. He knows this club and tells us what we need to bring to the table. These are very important points, we did well to hold on to the lead, it’s right to celebrate, but this is a small step on our journey. I couldn’t have celebrated 100 Serie A appearances any better.”

LUPERTO
“The enthusiasm in the air shows how important this match was for the entire team. We capitalized on the few opportunities we had, we fought as a team, and we must approach the next matches with this spirit, no matter what our opponents. We have a desire to stay in the division once again, and it was evident in the spirit we showed on the pitch. Hard work and tenacity allowed us to get the three points. The coach and I analyze every situation, and he gives us advice to continually improve. It will be the same after this victory in the second half of the season.”
