Marco Baroni praises Ranieri’s work at Roma: “I thank him for his guidance.” | OneFootball

Lazio head coach Marco Baroni spoke to DAZN a few hours prior to kick-off to the Derby della Capitale.

“It will be an extraordinary match. And it will be even more so because we will play it at home in front of our fans. We have the energy, but we will have even more thanks to the support of our fans,” said the Biancocelesti coach.

“Roma is a compact and solid team. In the last fifteen games they are first in the standings above Inter with a better attack and defense. But these are games that are determined by episodes that we must bring to our side, playing with great aggression and determination.”

“And then the most important thing: go ball after ball, every square meter, every play, every blade of grass.”

“Ranieri? I thank him for his words and guidance and I also compliment him given the great work he’s done.”

“The ‘mister’, I still call him that because he was my coach. He did something extraordinary and I was also lucky enough to experience it for a few months in Naples before leaving. He was very good: he had a wonderful career.”
