Ranieri: «A game of two halves, we were excellent in the second one»
Claudio Ranieri is in a different frame of mind compared to the last away game. In Rome, the manager had been more pleased about the result than the performance, after the Catania game there’s more regret for the two points lost in Sicily: «It was a game of two halves. In the first half, we struggled and playing with a rhombus-shaped midfield formation we were unable to find space, especially after their goal, when they closed shop at the back. I preferred returning to a 4-4-2 formation in the second half and we forced Catania to stay back. We made some mistakes, especially the last pass in front of goal, but the team never gave up, just the way I like it».
