Bologna, Italiano wants second cup: "Let’s make club history"

Bologna coach Vincenzo Italiano spurred the Rossoblù on the eve of the Italian Super Cup match against Napoli: “We are charged up because we will play a historic final for Bologna and for the club. We have tried to do our best in these days and we will see if we can make it count. We want to put a great team in trouble and make all of Bologna” proud. The Felsinians want to make 2025 memorable by winning their second title of the season after the Coppa Italia won in May against AC Milan.
Italian archived the championship win with Napoli: “The championship is one story, this one’another. Here the stakes are very high, we are playing for a trophy in 90 minutes. We have no anxiety, we really have to push it away. There is anticipation and great excitement for this game, maximum concentration on what we are going to do and nothing else. We have to try to regain strength and energy, especially those who played the semifinal. We have had very little time to prepare for it from the recovery aspect, tomorrow we have to send out those who can perform at a very high level”.
“It’s needless to say ‘already being here is an achievement, we have already made history’. When you play finals the’only will you have is to be you to rejoice and raise the trophy. I will try together with the boys to give my best. It’s nice to play these matches, they are wonderful feelings, you arrive at the epilogue of a journey that started by winning the Italian Cup, it gives you the opportunity to play matches of this importance”, Italiano continued.
On the relationship with De Laurentiis: “He’s a person I respect and appreciate, since at Napoli he has made a remarkable step of growth between championships, championships won and cups. A great applause to him and to those who work with him, he has also contributed to this great growth. I had the pleasure of talking to him especially after a Napoli-Spezia match“.
