After beating Sampdoria 4-3 to remain fourth in Serie A on Monday, Cagliari won 2-1 against the same opponent on Thursday evening to advance to the last-16 of the Coppa Italia, much to the delight of their boss Rolando Maran
“The most important thing was to go through,” the Coach told reporters at his post-match press conference. “Once again we are showing our true identity. The lads have a great approach also to the cup games. It makes me happy, because this underlines the great work the guys are doing and it’s a fair reward for them.”
“I’m pleased with the approach I saw from everyone, all of them want to be in the limelight. We try to honour all the games in the same way, we are motivated to always do well.”
