Inzaghi energizes Palermo: "We can win again"

"I think the team needs to be at its best on the field, because we want to get back to winning right away."

Pippo Inzaghi wants to lift Palermo after a dark week in which the rosanero suffered a heavy defeat in the direct clash against Monza and only managed to secure one point in the midweek match on Tuesday night at the "Barbera" against Juve Stabia.

Today at 3 PM at the "Euganeo" stadium, the challenge against Padova: "The team has prepared well - said Inzaghi to the microphones of the rosanero club - we need to understand who has recovered from these two matches in four days, but I think we will play a great game. The team feels the need to get back to winning and we will try in every way."

Today, they face a Padova side coming off three consecutive defeats (Avellino, Catanzaro, and Venezia). The men of Andreoletti are looking for a comeback in front of their home crowd: "In Serie B, everyone wants redemption, and we, as I said before, want to get back to winning at all costs and to face the break in the best way possible. Probably in these last two matches, we have collected less than we deserved, but if it hasn't happened, it's only due to our own shortcomings, and we need to quickly get back to earning the three points."

Against Padova, it is the third match in a week. Therefore, there may be some rotations in the starting eleven.

"In the meantime, Ranocchia will return after his suspension, then I will have to evaluate and try to understand who can start and who can come on. You know what I think, that substitutions are what decide the fate of matches, and I will try to make my choices based on this as well."

Now it is important to arrive at the final break of the season in the best shape for the final rush.

"I think it is very important to close with a victory - said Inzaghi - to bring home the three points and try to close the gap in the standings. Then we will have time to rest to play these six finals at our best and see where we will be after seven matches."

We need to start again from the applause of the fans at the end of the match against Juve Stabia. Even in Padova, their support will not be lacking in a stadium celebrating the historic friendship between the two fan bases.

"I said last time that we have an incredible debt to these people. I remember what I said at the beginning of the year. I said a phrase that has come to my mind these days, which is that if we had left the field after a defeat with the applause of our people, it would have been a great source of satisfaction for me. It happened in Monza and it happened the other night despite a draw at home where everyone wanted to bring home the three points. The people have shown that if you fight, struggle, and try to give your best, in the end, they reward you even if you don't win. This should trigger something special and unique in us because we need to hold on to these fans and we need to give them many beautiful matches."
