Gianfranco Zola hailed a “fantastic result” and new goalkeeper Zeljko Brkic after Cagliari beat Cesena 2-1.

It was their first home win of the season and Zola’s maiden Serie A victory since replacing Zdenek Zeman on Christmas Eve.

“It’s a fantastic result and that is the most important thing about today,” Zola told Rai Sport.

“I am also satisfied in terms of performance. The team desperately wanted this victory and the pressure got to them at the end, as they almost stopped playing.

“This result gives us a real confidence boost and we’ll have the time to improve too.”

Brkic made his debut after arriving from Udinese and made some crucial saves.

“Brkic was decisive. His presence was always felt by the defenders, especially towards the end when the Bianconeri started to pump crosses into the box. He made the difference.”
