“It’s a great moment, having this confidence.
” I’ve had a difficult month and scoring, and finding an assist is a great feeling and gives me confidence.
“Very very important for the team and for the club.
” We won and we have the chance to climb the table.”
In their upcoming match, the Rooseneri will play Real Madrid, the current champions.
He underlined how crucial winning the game is.
“I hope to win against Madrid, it’s important to gain points in the standings.
“But now the most important thing is to focus on the next match, against Bologna,” he added.
