The words of the Roma midfielder: “I dedicate my goal to Bove. I believe he was the most important person in the world of football that I have known to date. “I Always Try to Give 100% of Myself”
Niccolò Pisilli spoke to Sky microphones after the match against Lecce. Here’s what he had to say:
“Can you describe your goal?” “I followed the action from the back, Paulo made a great pass to Saud who sent in a very smart ball.” How long have you dreamed of running under the South? “I have dreamed of running underneath the South for a long time, I’ll remember it forever.”
You made your debut with Mourinho and convinced De Rossi, Juric, Spalletti, and Ranieri: how did you do that? “I always try to give 100% of myself, I may appeal more to some and less to others, but I think this is the most important thing.” Your mother is a psychologist and you’re always playing with a smile, why is that? “My mom gives me a lot of advice, I’m curious about these things. I play with a smile because playing football is the most beautiful thing in the world, it comes naturally to me”. Do you wish to send a message to Bove? “This goal is all for him, I hope things will turn out well because Edoardo is a golden boy. I believe he is the most important person I have met in the world of soccer thus far. “I heard it, like everyone else, but now it’s only fair that he takes time for himself and his family, this goal, I dedicate entirely to him.”

Were you expecting such a start to the season? “It was a complicated start for us, I always try to give my all.”
How does Pellegrini see it? “Lorenzo is our captain and he is a great captain. He’s always helpful and always available. From a technical level, there’s no discussion, he has always scored many goals and will soon return to doing what he knows”.
Does the Roma championship start today? “We need to try to look at each game and slowly make our way up”.

The thrill of scoring. “I’ve always dreamed about this moment under the South Stand, a memory I will always carry with me. “It was liberating in the end.”
Amid many coaching changes, he always managed to find his space and role. Where does your serenity come from? “I only think about playing when I’m on the field, whether it’s 1-1 or 1-0 for us or for the others, I always give 100% and it’s the most important thing. The rest comes naturally.” “How significant was Ranieri’s arrival for you? Do you want to send a message to Bove?” “Today’s goal, I dedicate entirely to Edoardo, it’s all for him. I hope things go the best for him. “With Ranieri, we’ve regained serenity, a more fierce spirit, and team unity,” they stated about the future and the renewal. “I still have a year and a half with Roma, there’s no issue. There’s time, we’ll talk about it and we’ll discuss it further in the future.” “As for my future, I do not know what I will want to do, it’s up to me to demonstrate my level. If I can measure up, I may stay here. We shall see.” “Ranieri has made a real tactical investiture. What are your characteristics? “Difficult question, self-description that proves challenging. “The coach demands that I be a box-to-box player, striving to perform at my best in both halves. I aim to excel in both defensive and offensive play,”
