Cristian Chivu spoke at a press conference after the great victory against Cagliari at home, which brings the Scudetto goal ever closer. Now only seven points are needed for the mathematical certainty of the title.
“Change in the second half: if it doesn’t start like this, it’s my fault. We need to find solutions to get rid of those thoughts, the difficulties. We know that football is not mathematics. The opponent can surprise you. Today in the first half the play was slow, without an attack on the line. We were aware that as soon as they recovered the ball they could counterattack. At halftime we made some adjustments, based on what we saw. We changed tactically, we tried to be more open, we added someone up front and made the play between the lines quicker. When their minds are relaxed they also have fun,” commented the coach analyzing the match.
“Scudetto? Today mathematically we have achieved one of our objectives,” he added, recalling the jab of recent days at his main competitors for the title regarding qualification for the Champions League. “The road is still long but the fact that we put ourselves out there, and because we are in a good position I am happy for our boys and for our fans.”
And then a message to the fans and the team: “We are enjoying the performance, we will have time to think about this victory, we must never forget to enjoy these matches. The curva sang for the first time ‘we will win the title’, any comment? The fans give us so much energy with what they do, I am pleased that there is this connection between the fans and the team, we must continue like this because we need them,” he concluded.
