The head coach of Lazio has lamented the dependency the Biancocelesti players have on their German
forward, Miroslav Klose, and need to pull their own weight.
There were a lot of aspirations from the Aquile when they were about to take on Napoli at the Stadio San Paolo;
however, it went horribly pear shaped for the Aquile as they looked a shadow of the side that has been performing so well in the Serie A so far.
Before the match, the Biancazzurri outfit had collected three victories out of a possible four matches, and
were neatly placed in the third position with nine points; behind Napoli, who were on ten points and Juventus, who were on 13 points.
However, all that could go wrong, did go wrong in the match for Lazio. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Miroslav-Klose-c26049 scored a goal but later
claimed it himself that he had used his hand to control the ball and the goal was disallowed. Coach Petkovic went on to state that it was not the brightest of evenings for his side and many players performed below par in the match.
He remarked that the Aquile had started off as the far more threatening side on the day; however, they did
not have an answer after the Vesuviani went ahead courtesy of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Edinson-Cavani-c11955. Cavani was in top form as he scored a hat trick and on top of that he also managed to miss a penalty. The score line could have been a lot worse for the Biancazzurri outfit.
Petkovic went on to state:
“Today certain incidents went against us, like
Klose who scored and confessed he had handled it. We had been dangerous early on and Napoli were afraid, but after their opening goal everything changed.”
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Napoli-c40003 ran away 3-0 victors on the night and Petkovic told his team to start relying on themselves and perform
to par, and remarked:
“Klose can’t always be the one to resolve situations. The others have to take responsibility too. We must remain calm and try to introduce other strikers in
future.”
The German international was the highest scorer for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lazio-c39775 in the last season.
