Gianmarco Pozzecco spoke to Sky Sport following the victory over the Philippines: “Criticize me, but don’t say I’m a bad influence because it’s not true. Say I lose games, that I’m mad, that I’m abnormal, but don’t touch my players. Don’t touch my staff. Don’t touch my president who has treated me like a son these past two days. He has seen the suffering of a man… many coaches say that a coach is alone… I am not.”
“These boys are amazing (…) We were in an extremely complicated group. Explaining it to those who are already biased is impossible (…) We’ve raised the bar, this has put more pressure on us, but the boys are extraordinary.”
“Keep criticizing me, and don’t worry. No, not you, not you Mamo (Alessandro Mamoli), whoever feels guilty… My president said something right and wise.”
“I’m on the 37th floor, I couldn’t throw myself out because the windows don’t open. And I always had a staff member sleeping near me so that I wouldn’t do anything stupid. I’m made this way. But let’s talk about the players.”
