Pirlo finally exults: "We couldn’t fail"

Andrea Pirlo celebrated his Sampdoria’s first home win, a convincing 2-0 victory over Cosenza at the Ferraris: "Cosenza played their game. It came from a positive moment, è a team that plays soccer with outstanding individualities. Games are unlocked by episodes, this time è it happened to us".

Pirlo praised the spirit of his team: "They took off the burden of winning in front of our fans. It's been a liberation becauseè playing all the games with the desire to win at home we wanted".

"There were all the right components to win. We could not make a mistake. The celebration for Mantovani è was important. After what he created with this team he deserved a win. We did it well, it was needed but now we think about the next one".

Pirlo hopes the team has turned around: "When you win individual duels it leads you to win games. There was the right conviction. in these two weeks there were the good feelings. Today we were playing with two 2003 centerbacks and a 2002 goalkeeper. Young team not used to playing with this pressure. There'è to be congratulated".
