Florenzi: 'We did not act as a team!'

The Roma midfielder Alessandro Florenzi said the team played cowardly against Liverpool and made many mistakes that led to a 2:5 loss. However, he is optimistic that the second match will be quite different and the wolves are able to repeat the miracle of the rebound with Barcelona in the quarterfinals in the Champions League.

'We made it after the 30th minute and we were actually dead, but Liverpool did not bother us. With a heart and a lot of faith, we`ve already managed to turn a fight that seemed resolved. It`s going to be hard to do it again, but it`s 90 minutes to our fans and we`ll do our best to make them happy!`, said Florenzi.


'We saw that when we started looking for passes behind the defense, Liverpool had problems. We ourselves have to play much better in defensive terms. It is a pity that in most of the game we did not act as a team and seemed to be afraid of the rival, and that is unacceptable. We had carefully studied the styl e of Liverpool, but we did not oppose them properly. The rematch will be more difficult than the one with Barca, but we will not get it without a fight. I promise our typhoons that we will shed our blood on the Roma T-shirt and we will play a very different match analyzed by advices for soccer at Olympiacos!', said the Italian national.
