After the sixth matchday of Serie A, Udinese coach KostaRunjaic held a press conference at the end of the match against Torino, in which he reiterated his confidence despite the fourth consecutive defeat. The episode was described as a "big mistake" similar to the one committed in the match against Cagliari, but the manager said he remained optimistic about the team's future.
Runjaic explained that the loss was primarily caused by a “lack of communication and perception” among the players, a lack that led to constant defensive errors. Torino capitalized on a set piece, scoring the first goal of the match, while Udinese failed to create chances and did not find the goal. The coach underlined that although the team showed positive points, the defense was the main cause of the defeat.
Among the positive aspects, Runjaic highlighted the return of Solet, who proved to be an important element on the pitch, and the confirmation of the qualities of Ekkelenkamp, who continued to give value to the group. He also expressed hope in the recovery of other key players, underlining the importance of maintaining team unity and morale to overcome this difficult moment.
Despite the defeat, the coach maintained a positive tone, stating that every match brings lessons and that the goal is to learn from mistakes to improve. He closed the conference with the idea of encouraging each other and continuing to work to get back into shape, leaving open the prospect of a recovery in the next matches.
