Morten Frendrup on Genoaโ€™s thrilling draw v Roma: โ€œIn the second half, we showed more courageโ€

Genoa captain Morten Frendrup lauded his team for salvaging a last-gasp draw against Roma.

Speaking to the press via TMW in the post-match conference following Genoaโ€™s 1-1 draw with Roma, Morten Frendrup highlighted the shift in momentum in the second half which led to Koni De Winter netting a last-minute equaliser. The Danish international said: โ€œWe made some changes between the first and second half, we put more courage into it.โ€

The 23-year-old was asked about his versatile position on the field and he commented: โ€œPlaying more games and acquiring more responsibility but there is a good group.โ€

Just when the Giallorossi thought that they had come away with all three points from the match, Genoaโ€™s De Winter popped up an equaliser in the 96th minute. Artem Dovbykโ€™s 36th-minute goal gave the visitors an early lead but the Ligurians kept the pressure on and presented a renewed approach to their game in the second half.ย 

Skipper Frendrup will be in jubilation for his side to steal a point from this challenging encounter and this draw is set to serve as something to build on before Genoa face Sampdoria in the Derby della Lanterna this month.ย
