Head coach of Roma commented on the upcoming match with the Donetsk Miner.
On Wednesday, February 21, Metallist stadium will host the match of the 1/8 finals of the Champions League "One of the main tasks is to avoid losing concentration. Tomorrow we will have to defend ourselves and defend ourselves. There will be times when we will lead the game. The same applies to Miner. But we are now in good shape and tomorrow we will succeed, "- said Di Francesco at a press conference.
"I can not say whether Under. On the field there will be a team, not individual players. We are very pleased with the progress of Under, but no one is guaranteed a place in the start. Composition I will announce tomorrow. I am confident that all the players who will come out on the field will fight with all their strength ".
"I would not say that one of the teams is better than the other. Yes, Shakhtar has not played for a long time, but it can be an advantage, because the team was preparing for a certain duel. Also we all remember our past meetings. Then the situation was similar.
The miner was not in good shape, but we all remember how it ended for Roma ".
"We come to every game gradually and do not allocate any games. We deserve an exit in the playoffs and we want to go further. The miner has an incredible attack potential and we know his strength. I think that the chances of 50 to 50 ".
"Recently, we play the same scheme, but only in the course of the game will we be able to understand whether we need any radical changes".
