Ascoli, 28 October 2023 - Fabio Pecchia’s comments following Ascoli vs. Parma on Matchday 11 of the Serie BKT Championship. 

“We found passage to goal through good pressure, done well, recovering the ball very high up. But we have to revise something from the first 15 minutes, we were not our usual selves, but of course credit to Ascoli who are a team in form that wanted to play. But then we stepped it up. The equaliser and some situations Ascoli put us in woke us up, we began to find our way again and find our lines of play, 

when we were in possession in their half we found passage to goal with a beautiful play. 

Good, happy, but still we have to take lots of things from this game to improve upon. A dirty game? It must be one of our qualities, to be able to play with elegance and desire, but also be ready to roll up our sleeves and do the dirty work when necessary. Choices for the 3 matches? This game was played by those who played, in a few days there will be a very good game to play with the whole group, of course. Camara? Welcome back and I'm happy. But Begic is also with us, it's all about developing the youngsters. The management of the squad? No one is indispensable, only the group’s desire to work in the same direction.
