Paolo Zanetti challenges former great Marco Baroni

The words of Paolo Zanetti

Hellas Verona does not fear the difficult away match at the Olimpico against Lazio. This was the thought of the Gialloblù coach Zanetti in the usual presentation press conference. The match will be played on Monday, Sept. 16: kickoff at 8:45 pm. Standings: Hellas 6 points, Lazio 4 points after 3 matches. The Veronese will missà Serdar two to three more weeks following a serious muscle injury.

"We will meet a team that has the technical qualities to aim for the Champions zone» explained Zanetti «for us it will be the second consecutive away match, as always we respect the opponent but we want to try to score points on all fields". 

Last year on the bench of Verona sat Baroni, the coach of the resounding salvation. "To Baroni I have nothing more to say than what we have already said to each other – Zanetti continued – here he has done a great job, è an experienced coach, who has made the gavetta and who deserves to be in a great team".

The yellowoblù è squad is full of promising youngsters: "Cissè in the long run he will express his potential. So will Lambourde and also Sishuba, although I see the former as more ready at this time. Then there'è Ghilardi, a starter for the Italian Under 21 and I could make a long list. The club and director Sogliano have built a'very good team".

Belahyane has already è highlighted himself. " the player has great courage and personality, è he is brave and has fun when he plays, he has infinite room for growth but must remain humble». As for the latest arrivals from the market, Sarr and Alidou – Zanetti concluded- are players who have quality but must also be ready physically".
