Cristante: “We could have closed the game earlier.” | OneFootball

Bryan Cristante spoke to Roma TV shortly after Roma beat Lecce 0-1.

The Italian midfielder discussed the match and previewed the next game with Juventus.

“Tonight we were good, we were compact,” he said. “We could have closed it even earlier, because between the first and second half we had some opportunities to close it, but that’s okay.”

“We go home with three points with the clear mission of fighting for the top positions in the table in these final weeks.”

“Juventus? We have to face it the way we’ve been facing games for a while now.”

“It’s a direct clash, they’re a strong team, we know, they’ve just changed coach, so they’ll be very motivated, but, well, we’re also doing well and we want to play to win.”
