Interviewed by SportMediaset, Maurizio Sarri spoke like this after the defeat of his team:
"We were off, I hope it's from a physical point of view. We have excellent performances but tonight we are back at the beginning of the season. I was expecting a different performance despite knowing about the difficulties of the game."
On the rules of the Coppa Italia competition:
"I don't like the format of the Italian Cup but it has nothing to do with the match. You have to do it like the FA Cup in England. Ours seems to be a format more about television rights..."
On Immobile's injury:
"It's a strong blow to the instep for Immobile, we hope to recover him immediately."
