Sassuolo defeated Bologna in a 4-3 thriller in the Emiliano derby. De Zerbi saw his club come back from 3-1 down in 13 minutes, and now find themselves with 10 points in the standings. Here are his words following the match:
"We are happy. It was a different match from what we saw in the past. We were down two goals and we had a great reaction toward the play. Bologna is an organized team that plays well. We feared this match. We lost many duels in the first half, while the conviction of those who entered in the second half made us win. We were too anxious to score at the beginning, if we evaluated the situation better we would have done even better."
"This victory is important for our journey, but we must not forget what we did to arrive at this level. It will be difficult against Torino, but we will have 13 points with a victory."
