Gabriele Cioffi in controversy: “Turning boxes.”

Hellas Verona’s third defeat came against Udinese: “In the second half I believed in it, I think I showed it with the changes. Piccoli I chose because Udinese is a team that slips little: we had prepared the match with Henry fixed on Bijol, on that side we needed a player with leg like Roberto.”

However, the scaligeri’s helmsman has something to complain about the refereeing: “After their second goal I restrained myself from running to the referee. The judgment parameter of the foul whistled to Djuric compared to those not whistled to Henry is absurd. We played against a team that we contained in the first half with strength and leg to restart, in the second we suffered them more, although I don’t think they had great chances. I’m pissed that we lost like that.”

“Until this match we were the team with more meters per minute. The team played more, was less direct. Having said that, I am not happy. We come out of this situation calmly, not anxiously. We will have to recover players, work. Those who played did well, the national teams penalized us but we don’t care. I saw a team eager to get results,” Cioffi concluded.
