Bologna, Italian: "I told Dallinga to let us win"

Bologna coach Vincenzo Italiano congratulated the team for the valuable away win against Torino: "It allows us to have a peaceful Christmas, that was the goal today. We wanted continuity of positive results, the boys deserved an extra day of rest. After the missed penalty we got a little disunited, we didn't put Toro" in trouble. 

"We could have changed the dynamic right away, then finally Dallinga: we were waiting for it for a long time. Then good, we did not concede and we are growing in defense and after the advantages, we put more malice. In the resumption the crossbar and Pobega’s goal, Freuler’s situations, è it was a positive resumption".

"What did I say to Dallinga? 'It's time you go there win some games and score goals'. He had come close so many times, especially in the Champions League, and he had been good at moving into spaces. Finally he è unlocked, it will be important to have a center forward in confidence".

On the team’s progress: "Teams never achieve perfection, you can always adjust and improve with training. Next week we will analyze this first half, we played under tempo and were slow. You look for improvement, then you can aspire to important dreams to stick to the better ones. I am pleased with the defensive solidity, it comes from the sacrifice of everyone".
