The decisive Brazilian with his brace in the victory over Sampdoria: six goals behind Immobile in the bomber ranking
CAGLIARI. «Happy, very happy. I feel the rossoblù shirt like my second skin. And scoring two goals contributing to this success was really important ».
Joao Pedro is in seventh heaven, sixth goal of the season and second double in the league, second place in the top scorers behind Immobile, in short, it’s his moment. «But what matters – he adds – is that the victory has finally arrived after seven unsuccessful days. We all cared a lot and we succeeded ».
«We wanted this victory with all our strength – says the rossoblù captain -. We have loaded a lot in these 15 days. The work done and the anger we all had for such a bad ranking despite the team being very competitive, finally led us to success ».
From Joao Pedro to Charalampos Lykogiannis, permanent owner in the chessboard designed by Walter Mazzarri. «I feel very good in the assigned role – says the Greek -. Now we are happy for this victory which gives us so much confidence to face the next commitments with more confidence ».
It is hard to see Cagliari in last position in the standings and with no success. «Certainly Cagliari is not a team from last place in the standings – Lykogiannis is keen to specify – and against Sampdoria we wanted to prove it at all costs. We prepared the game in the best possible way. We were good at holding up until the end of the match ».
A fundamental victory. «For sure – concludes Lyko – it allows us to celebrate and be more serene. But it was also great because we got it in front of our fans to whom we gave great joy ».
