The head coach of the Italian “Roma” Claudio Ranieri commented on his team’s defeat to “Milan” (1:3) in yesterday’s match of the Coppa Italia quarter-finals.
Claudio Ranieri“Congratulations to ‘Milan’, they have incredible quality of play in all lines. We played against a great team, but we tried to do everything possible. We could have scored a few goals in the first half, but in the end, we conceded two goals ourselves. Coming back from a 0:2 score against such teams is very difficult.
Shomurodov (the forward of ‘Roma’ displaced Artem Dovbik from the starting lineup for this match, — ed.) did not manage today. I asked him to do what he did in the match against ‘Napoli’, but apparently, he spent too much time on the field in that game.
What do I regret? That Dovbik was offside (this refers to the canceled VAR goal by Tidjani Reinders in the 75th minute of the match when the score was 3:1 in favor of ‘Milan’, — ed.). If the score had become 3:2, we would have had a chance to take the game into overtime,” said Ranieri at the post-match press conference.
Let us remind you, the only goal for 'Roma' in the match against 'Milan' was scored by Ukrainian forward Artem Dovbik. WATCH the video of his goal on our Telegram channel.
