25.07.2010GOOD TEST

The match won yesterday in Cosenza against Lyon can be considered to be a positive sign of our training period to get ready for the next season in the best possible way. The season that for us is about to start very soon, next Thursday in Dublin with the first official match in the preliminary games for the Europa League against Shamrock Rovers.

I’m content with my personal test as well as with the team’s one, the opponent was of an excellent level and above all very well fit. In my opinion that was exactly the point that indicated our improvement. The match was surely affected by Cissokho being sent off in the first half, but apart from the result - a positive one for us - there were other targets that, I believe, we have reached.

I scored the penalty goal, and obviously this goal as well as our win doesn’t hurt. And now, let’s move on toward serious matches... See you in Ireland!
