Empoli 1-1 Parma
Gigi Cagni: “A point is always useful. We still have a lot of work to do and I have only been here for two weeks, so I am convinced next Sunday we’ll see a different performance.”
Hector Cuper: “We played better in the first half. The real problem today was that we were too slow. However, a four-man defence improved the side.”
Genoa 3-0 Torino
Assistant Manager Bruno Caneo: “It is a deserved victory. We made the most of the chances that we created. Marco Borriello is fighting for the Capocannoniere title and his teammates are helping him.”
Walter Novellino: “The team is behind me despite this moment of difficulty. I do not feel that I am hanging by a thread and do not fear the sack. We have worked well this season.”
Lazio 1-1 Siena
Delio Rossi: “I tried to send out a logical line-up with people who were motivated. The only thing we did wrong was fail to convert our second goal.”
Mario Beretta: “We still need a few points to achieve safety, even if eight points are a good margin of error. My future? We’ll evaluate that situation later.”
Livorno 1-2 Cagliari
Giancarlo Camolese: “We started off well and could have gone 2-0 up, but instead Cagliari scored. We must get over this disappointment immediately. It is our duty to believe we can avoid relegation.”
Davide Ballardini: “We are in great shape at the moment and are happy with a fantastic result. Robert Acquafresca did well to convert his chances.”
Napoli 2-0 Atalanta
Edy Reja: “I am satisfied. The team played well and as soon as we lifted the pace a little we managed to get a deserved victory. Marek Hamsik has proved he has great quality.”
Gigi Del Neri: “Napoli deserved to win, but Ezequiel Lavezzi’s handling offence on the second goal robbed us of the opportunity to stage a comeback. We really missed Cristiano Doni and Antonio Langella today.”
Reggina 1-0 Sampdoria
Nevio Orlandi: “Reggina are right in this race and will fight to the end for safety. We imposed our tempo and style of play on a team that is in fantastic form.”
Walter Mazzarri: “It was a strange game. We were a little apathetic and not at all sharp. You could tell it was going to be a bad day at the office when we picked up those injuries.”
Udinese 1-3 Roma
Pasquale Marino: “I am not disappointed, as Roma started out better and then converted their chances more effectively than we did. I am satisfied with the performance.”
Luciano Spalletti: “We cannot afford a single mistake and also hope Inter drop points, as we cannot win this title on our own. The row between Alexander Doni and Christian Panucci was just a misunderstanding.”
