“Tomorrow is very Important for us”: Bologna’s Vincenzo Italiano prepares for Lille clash

As Bologna prepares to face Lille in a crucial Champions League match, the stakes are high for both teams. The Italian side, yet to score a goal in the tournament, is eager to change their fortunes against a formidable Lille team. Coach Vincenzo Italiano addressed the media in a pre-match press conference, emphasizing the importance of the upcoming game.

“Tomorrow is very important,” Italiano stated. “There are four matches left. If our calculations are correct, we are still in the running. We must give it our all to compete in the upcoming games.” He also discussed midfielder Tommaso Pobega, saying, “He will recover. For us, it is essential not to put the team in difficulty. He knows this; he is an intelligent player. The boy was a bit down, but I am glad he realized it. He must not make mistakes anymore.”

Discussing their opponents, Italiano noted, “Lille is a team composed of high-level players. They are performing well in both the league and the Champions League; it will be tough. In my opinion, they are not teams that make calculations; they are aggressive.” He also spoke about young talent Urbanski, stating, “He is a young guy who needs to grow. He is part of the squad and must fight for a starting position; when called upon, he has always done his part.” Regarding goalkeeper Lukasz Skorupski, Italiano mentioned, “He is fine; he had a severe flu but trained separately and is now well.”

On the topic of team formation, Italiano emphasized, “At the moment, only tomorrow matters, even though we must consider the great effort we made in Rome against Lazio. We still have many hours until 9:00 PM tomorrow; the focus is absolutely on Lille.”
