Igor, a defensive summer signing from Red Bull Salzburg, opened the scoring against Lecce.
“Credit goes to our sporting director. We have integrated him slowly, even if lately he’s been fully deserving of a place.
“We’ve lacked the right level of consistency at times. That’s the most important aspect.

“I believe these guys have the qualities to achieve our objectives.”
