Milan, 2 October (LaPresse) – "I've never missed three penalties in the same game before, then we fell behind early on and gave them the best chance to play on the counterattack. Apart from a few technical errors, we played with great desire and pace. We created chances and conceded others. We weren't strong enough in taking our opportunities, but you always learn something from these games.‘ That was how Roma coach Gian Piero Gasperini commented to Sky Sport on the home defeat against Lille in the Europa League. ’The penalties? I think it was a one-off, a fluke. But unfortunately it happened, and that penalty could have turned the game around. However, I think we come out of this match with some added value,‘ he added. ’They are a quick, fast team with technical ability. It wasn't easy to win the ball back, but the team's spirit was always high. Technical errors in defence make the difference, that's where we need to make fewer mistakes,‘ he continued. ’However, this is sport, football, we mustn't get downhearted because, fortunately, we have another match in three days,‘ said Gasperini. ’Dybala? I don't know, because he hasn't trained with the team yet," he concluded.
