Alberto Aquilani commented on Sassuolo's 4-2 defeat against Frosinone, revealing that the match was decisive for his team. In his speech on Sky Sport, the former goalkeeper underlined how errors and inertia affected the results, highlighting that many of them were avoidable. According to Aquilani, Frosinone showed greater aggression, which pushed the match in the desired direction. Sassuolo tried to maintain its identity, but was hit especially in the second balls and in the tackles, elements that influenced the final result.
In his analysis of the preparation, Aquilani explained that the team knew they had to concede a lot to Frosinone, but they had to do more damage in the opponent's penalty area. “Matches are decided in the two areas,” he said, underlining the importance of controlling both one's own penalty area and that of the opponent.
As for goalkeeper Muric, the former coach recognized his quality, calling him a great goalkeeper with all the necessary characteristics. However, he noted that Muric made "bad" and "glaring" mistakes, but reiterated that such mistakes are part of the game and that the goalkeeper must maintain everyone's trust. Aquilani also mentioned that the team discussed these points during the week preceding the match with Monza, and reiterated his positive assessment of Muric as a strong goalkeeper.
After the defeat, Sassuolo will have to reflect on how to improve their defense and ball management in the penalty area to avoid further losses in future matches. The match showed that, despite Muric's strength, the team needs to consolidate its defensive organization to remain competitive in Serie A.
