Lisci Reflects on Draw Against Elche, Highlights Key Moments

omidbasir- Alessio Lisci expressed satisfaction with his team’s draw against Elche, asserting that, given the circumstances, Elche deserved to win. He noted, “It was a match with clear chances for both sides, although they undoubtedly had more opportunities than we did. I have no problem admitting that.”

Regarding the team’s strategy, Lisci explained, “Today, we aimed for a less aggressive pressing approach due to their physical strength and direct play capabilities. At times, it worked well. In the end, Budi had a header and a one-on-one opportunity, and Víctor also had a chance in the first half, while Raúl’s effort was cleared off the line. These were all very clear chances.”

Lisci also commended Sergio Herrera, who was awarded the best player of the match. He remarked, “He had an outstanding game. Along with Febas, he was probably the best player on the pitch.”

Finally, he addressed the controversy surrounding potential penalties, stating, “I haven’t seen the possible handball incident, but I believe Budimir’s situation should have been a penalty, although there was likely a foul by Budimir on Bigas prior to that. Ultimately, the fair call would have been a foul awarded to Bigas.”
