The words of Luca Gotti after the draw with Cagliari

.

Luca Gotti, Lecce coach, commented to the microphones of Sky Sport on the Salentini’s external draw against Cagliari (1-1): "In the first half intensityà and physicalityà were predominant. Cagliari played a good game, pressing all over the field and we struggled more than expected. The expulsion gave a different direction to the match".

"We were good at not making a mess, there was the risk of throwing ourselves forward in the hunt for an equalizer without polish – added the Giallorossi coach – Instead I saw an intelligent Lecce, able to wait for the right moment and even come close on three occasions to scoring the winning goal. Made 1-1 it was right to try to overturn it, the poles told us no and è a pity".

"The stakes were very high and there can be some peculiar behavior,” he continued. “At halftime I urged the boys to stay focused only and only on the events on the field, on what we can determine. The coach must also maintain the same attitude, otherwise I misread the moments".

"43 minutes of actual play? I am a traditionalist. There are people who have fallen in love with the sport because of its dynamics, because of the spectacle it è can offer. Today every contact è always foul, there are cautions that do not exist, changes that I do not like. The effective time is achieved by educating the athletes, I think our little league is nevertheless headed in this direction. I am surprised, però that for the red to Gaetano it was necessary to consult VAR. I was two steps away, it was all obvious" concluded Gotti.
