Sarri: A bit confused about the team's performances, and doesn't like the Coppa Italia model

Live Bar February 10, 2019 In the quarter-finals of the Coppa Italia, Lazio lost 4-0 to AC Milan. After the match, Lazio boss Maurizio Sarri expressed concern about the state of the team and dissatisfaction with the Coppa Italia schedule in an interview with Mediaset Sports.

Sarri said in an interview:

"We're completely locked up and I hope it's a physical problem caused by fatigue because if it's a mental problem, it's even more worrisome." We've been racing hard lately, but tonight we've made the same mistake again, and in recent months we've actually gradually eliminated the ups and downs of form. So I'm expecting to have difficulties tonight, but I'm looking forward to a different performance. ”

"The players in the recent tournaments have been very agile both physically and mentally, so today's performance confused me and I hope it's just a small episode and we can get back on track."

The reporter asked that even if the recent record is good, if you compare it with the original Napoli, the current Lazio team still does not look like Sarri's team. Sarri responded:

"Every team has his characteristics and you can't reproduce the same players or train them in the same way. [That] Napoli team has a better ability in terms of passing, so there's no doubt this Lazio team has a different style. That being said, we can't assume that tonight's performance is the real strength of the Lazio team. ”

To make matters worse, As Mobile was substituted for an injury to his right ankle during the match, Sarri said: "His foot and ankle were hit and we will look at it further tomorrow. ”

Sarri's remarks about the Coppa Italia 'anti-sport' this week have caused controversy, with Sarri complaining about himself saying:

"I don't like the Coppa Italia format, but it has nothing to do with this game. The FA Cup is the most popular cup in the world because every team competes from the start. After the previous round, the live TV schedule was announced, with the first team choosing to play at home and the other away, all at random. ”

"Instead, the Coppa Italia has led to more involvement of clubs with higher ratings. In my opinion that's why it's anti-sports, I just don't like the format. ”
