Ranieri: «The important thing was not to concede goals»

At the end of the day Claudio Ranieri obtained what he wanted: the point necessary to end Group H at the top of the table thus the cherry on the cake at the end of the first phase of the Champions League but also to avoid leaving a bad impression against bate who had nothing to lose at the Olimpico.

Here are Ranieri’s comments: : «In such a match with two out of three results in our favour it would have been silly to concede a goal from a counter-attack. Tonight it was important non conceding goals while creating goal opportunities. I am happy with Giovinco’s performance notwithstanding the missed penalty and I’m also happy with Zanetti who played his first match of the season. I am also happy to have given the possibility of their debut to two primavera players. The draw? The name is not important but what is important is the condition in which we will get to that period. The strongest opponent possible is Chelsea ».
