AS Roma manager Gian Piero Gasperini expressed mixed emotions following a comeback draw against Napoli. While noting that team morale remains high, Gasperini stated that the result felt like a “missed opportunity” despite the competitive performance.
Gasperini praised the team's energy and quality of play, particularly after the first thirty minutes of the match. He highlighted the extraordinary performance of Soulé and commended the leadership and contributions of Balerdi and De Roon. Balerdi was specifically noted for scoring a brace.
Reflecting on the season, Gasperini remarked that while the team has recorded three draws, they have remained competitive in each, including matches against Inter and Como. He acknowledged the risks inherent in their attacking style of play, which has led to conceding goals, but maintained that the team plays with the intention to win.
