Palermo, Di Francesco: “Barbera remains a factor, even if so far we have performed better away from home”

“When I scored that goal against Lazio, we had not yet reached an agreement with the Rosanero club. Negotiations were at the very beginning, and after this goal there was the next week, during which Palermo have shown that they really want me and I’m glad to be here.in this important square, which has gone down in the history of Italian football.” Rosanero forward Federico Di Francesco that’s what he says into microphones Media goal on his move to Sicily and then the difficulties of Serie B: “There are a lot of difficult matches and you always have to try your best, also because all the teams that come here to play are playing the match of their lives. So far, among the teams we have met, I have been impressed by Spezia, despite having few points in the standings, but Venice and Modena are also particularly competitive.”

Then there is the surprise home defeat to Lecco: “We must congratulate the Lombards because they played a great match.were branded as victims of the tournament, but have so far collected less than they deserved, also due to the vicissitudes of registration for the championship. This team put us in a difficult position with their defense. We also started well, perhaps we conceded a goal at our best moment, we tried to win it back under pressure from the crowd. Perhaps we were not able to carry out some restarts very successfully, and some team errors were made. It could happen.”

Then there is a place for the stadium factor, which is not yet decisive: “Barbera is just a help, the fact that we have had more success away from home so far is just a coincidence.. Barbera played an important role in the victory over South Tyrol and the recovery against Spezia. Of course, it is a fact that we have currently scored more points on the road, but we are working calmly and will approach each match the same way, that is, try to win them all. The coach wants it, and we want it too.”
