Eusebio Di Francesco was glad Sassuolo rediscovered “the provincial spirit” after their 1-0 win over Chievo.
The Neroverdi had been on poor form with five defeats from six rounds, but a Domenico Berardi penalty proved enough in this relegation tussle.
“We made life difficult for ourselves with the red card and Chievo were dangerous in the air, but we did well to soak up the pressure,” the Coach told Rai Sport.

“We made life difficult for ourselves with the red card and Chievo were dangerous in the air, but we did well to soak up the pressure,” the Coach told Rai Sport.
“Recently we had lost the provincial spirit and fallen behind in terms of mentality, but this was the kind of performance made of sacrifice that I like to see.”
Sassuolo are virtually safe from the threat of relegation now, as they are 13 points clear of the drop zone with nine rounds to go.
