Cristian Chivu is being modest and cuddling up to the little gem Pio Esposito
Cristian Chivu is being modest after qualifying for the round of 16 of the World Club World Cup: “I never talk about me, I talk about us, about the group that played a real game and wanted to pass the round despite difficulties in the first half in which we suffered their pressure and intensity”.
“In the second half we found the right countermeasures with the occupation of the field and a faster ball turn that allowed us to go vertical more often. In the end we also took it home and passed the round: that was the goal”.
The head is already at Fluminense: “We will play Monday night in the round of 16. We have another battle ahead of us’another battle. We have to recover physical and mental energy to face the next game”.
Closing on Pio Esposito: “It’s also his birthday, he will have to buy us some dinners. I am happy for him because he was up to a real game, not easy to handle physically and nervously”.
