The success against the grigiorossi è moreover, the first of the season for an island formation in great difficulty in this start of Serie A, so much so that Davide Nicola emphasizes above all the signals received by his players.

"This victory is worth Juventus – stressed Nicola in the post-match press conference in Cagliari -. I would have liked to score a little more, but that’s okay, also because in the first half I tried to make some experiments. The aggressive 4-2-3-1 you saw è something I have in fact been working on already for a few days".

Moreover, the Coppa Italia è was an opportunity to see in action some players who had been seen on the field less often so far in Cagliari. "Felici has quality in the one-on-one, although he now has to grow in personality. But guys like Palomino and Adopo also played well and did not make the so-called starters regret", Nicola said.

Important in perspective for Cagliari will beà also the contribution of the strikers. On the subject, soì Nicola: "Lapadula had some physical pains, then è grew on the distance and in the second half also helped him Piccoli. Luvumbo is not suffering from goal withdrawal, in my opinion, but he is working on it. Sooner or later he will score as well. Gaetano lacks some condition, he will find it; playing more often".
