Eusebio Di Francesco Proud Despite Venezia’s Relegation

Quoting Bolasport.com, Venezia coach Eusebio Di Francesco expressed no regrets despite his team’s relegation from Serie A after a 2-3 loss to Juventus at Stadio Pier Luigi Penzo.

I Lagunari, newly promoted last season, must return to Serie B after battling until the final week of the Italian league. The team’s performance significantly improved since Jay Idzes was appointed captain in the second half of the season.

In the last three months of the competition, Venezia showed a solid defense with these stats:

• 2 wins
• 7 draws
• Only 9 goals conceded in 11 matches

“We gave everything until the last minute. Although the final result is disappointing, I am proud of the players’ effort,” said Di Francesco.
