MASSIMILIANO ALLEGRI
"You can also risk losing these kinds of matches, and in that case you risk psychological repercussions, because we played a good game, we were aggressive and also technically we did well. I'm happy with the guys, we had the chance to extend our lead until the equaliser, because Roma are a great team and Jose Mourinho knows how to keep games open. I was hoping the action of Tammy Abraham’s goal wouldn't happen, up until that moment we had defended well on the corners, but football is like that. In the second half we should have made different choices, crossing more, but it is normal that we lacked strength a bit. The step that must be made is to lower the pace and make the opponents move more by making the ball travel: now, even if the season is very long, with Spezia we have to win. We need to make up for some absences, I don't like talking about it but it's also a numerical issue. Fabio Miretti played as though he was a veteran today, with maturity, the ability to distance himself, the first control forward. Few can do this."

"The only thing missing was the result, which would have came with a little luck and a few more shots on goal. But I am satisfied with how we held the pitch, now we are thinking about Wednesday's match and getting back on the right path immediately; we had to be confident and aggressive, which we were but we also have to avoid technical mistakes in the simple steps where you risk getting hurt. An extra goal was needed but the team did well, putting the work we did this week to good use. We must continue like this. I'm available to the team, I just think about giving my best and I do what the coach asks of me."
