Lazio's struggles continued today, as the biancocelesti fell to 2-1 to Sassuolo. The team remains at 68 points, with their scudetto hopes fading away after their third consecutive loss. Manager Simone Inzaghi spoke with the press after the match.
"The guys gave everything. Unfortunately it's not enough at this moment, we must all do more. We've spoken a lot with the guys in the past days. It's a unique period. We don't have an easy schedule. Sassuolo has the option to change 9-10 players from two days ago. We screwed up the match against Lecce. We must try to get ourselves together, you can see that we're not lucid. Three months ago we would not have allowed two goals like that.
The great regret is that the players trained during lockdown. Then we started with individual training. We had problems after ten days. Leiva, Cataldi, Marusic, Ramos, Correa and Adekanye had problems. We thought we'd only be without Lulic.
We must make more points, our scudetto is Champions League. Speaking about the scudetto is reckless. Due to our own doing and other reasons we must look reality in the face. But we will not quit. In Champions League next year, we should have more full rotations."
