Post-match quotes from De Leo

This is what Emilio De Leo had to say following Bologna’s first defeat of the season:

“We’ve been talking to the Coach just now and we’re feeling very bitter. Roma managed the ball better initially but then we rediscovered our playing principles: we need to acknowledge our mistakes because we conceded a goal when we could have been going for the win. We know how to dig in, we don’t disintegrate when we have difficulties and always wait for the right moment. However, we were punished for not taking the chance that came Soriano’s way. If we want to grow, we need to look at what we got wrong in that last bit of play after Roma had been awarded a free kick.”
