Mancini: Unfortunately, I missed the opportunity to score goals, but Roma are still united to play well in the European Cup

Livestream on 24 April In the 34th round of Serie A, Roma lost 3-1 away to Inter. Roma defender Mancini was interviewed after the game.

In the 28th minute of the match, Pellegrini took a free kick on the right side of the box, but Mancini's header was deflected high after jumping high, missing a good opportunity to score. Just a minute later, Inter took the lead with a quick counter-attack, with Dumfries scoring a one-handed goal.

Mancini said: "In a game like this, the details determine success or failure. I didn't do well enough today, I could have done better because I had the ability. Sometimes the goalkeeper will make a miraculous save, but sometimes like against Napoli or today's game, I could have done better and it was a great opportunity to score first. If we take the lead, we won't concede a goal soon after. ”

Mancini went on to say: "We know what we're capable of, we know how we've performed in the last few games. In today's game we were hit back by the opponent to score two goals, and another goal was conceded because of a corner, and a team like Inter will definitely create a lot of chances. Now let's think about next Thursday, which will be an important European Cup semi-final. ”

Roma have lost three times against Inter this season, 0-3 at home and 1-3 away in Serie A and 2-0 away in the Coppa Italia. However, Mancini believes Roma has improved now: "It was obviously the best game we played against Inter this season, although the result was 1-3. But as I said, the first 30 minutes of this game proved our worth. We have our first chance to score and if we scored this game would definitely be completely different. ”

Mancini pointed out: "This game gives us a sense of security because it is a game that can promote the growth of the team. Inter have been fighting for the title for 3 or 4 years, and we and the coach are just getting started. The team's performance has come and gone, but in the dressing room and on the pitch, I have seen a United Roma. We have to finish the season in the best shape. ”

At 3:00 a.m. Beijing time on April 29, the first leg of the European Cup semi-finals, Roma will challenge Leicester City away. Mancini said: "It's true that when you come to the end of the European race, you play more games than other teams. But we trained hard, we were in good shape and we would keep fighting until the 90th minute and do our best. It's our honor to play a game like this and we have to be aware that we have to fight all the time in the game. ”
