Venezia declared that they had regained confidence in themselves after the defeat against Inter, and that they believe they can recover the rankings. Coach Davide Nicola, visiting Como for Sunday's lunch match, expressed optimism about the team's future and outlined his priorities for the next match.
In his speech, Nicola underlined that the club is "continuing to do what it is doing" and that the objectives set are being achieved. He recalled the victory against Napoli, which allowed us to achieve a positive result, and praised the spirit shown by the players. "We produced the numbers to make it ours in Genoa, but the opposing team won them; with Inter we tried to alternate a low block with fast counterattacks, managing to keep the pace in an important way," said the coach. Nicola also highlighted the need to improve the ability to inflict damage at crucial moments, so that opposing teams do not find opportunities to cause disruption.
As for the attack, Nicola indicated his hierarchies: Yeboah, Lauberbach, Adams and Rrahmani. He reiterated that he always gives opportunities and trust to the players, and that he does not look for culprits. “The opportunities are there, we need to be less frenetic,” he said, showing great confidence in the team's abilities. In defense, he mentioned the possible presence of Busio, who could return from the first minute after injury, and Yeboah, who should have a chance next to Adams.
The coach also highlighted the availability of Bella Kotchap, who has also recovered, to wear the shirt. With this information, Venezia is preparing to challenge Como with a renewed mentality and a formation that aims to make the most of the potential of the key players. The next match will be an opportunity to see if the renewed confidence will translate into positive results and if the team can get closer to its season goals.
