Ghana international, Emmanuel Gyasi was pleased with the performance of his Spezia Calcio outfit on Monday evening when the team squandered a 2-goal lead to settle for a draw against Cagliari.
The attacker started and played 90 minutes yesterday when his side played their first match of the 2021/2022 Italian Serie A season.
On the matchday, Emmanuel Gyasi scored inside the first seven minutes of the game before Simone Bastoni doubled the lead for Spezia in the second half.
Unable to hold on, a brace from Joao Pedro later on meant that Cagliari crawled back to draw 2-2 at the end of the game.
Speaking in a post-match interview, Emmanuel Gyasi said he is pleased with the performance of this team although he admits it’s painful they lost two points.
“I'm sorry for the missed 3 points, but it's okay, we played well and I'm satisfied.
“The new players have integrated well, we are a young team, but with attributes and a great desire to impress,” Gyasi said after the game.
The Black Stars forward added, “The coach motivated us during the warm-up and in the locker room before entering the field, giving us confidence in our abilities.
“The others “old” players and I were good at welcoming the new guys, and they immediately adapted to our game."
