Rolando Maran felt Chievo deserved “all three points” from their 1-1 draw with Hellas Verona.

Lucas Castro’s header cancelled out an Eros Pisano opener at the Bentegodi.

“Considering the performance and the numerous scoring opportunities, we certainly deserved at the very least a point,” Maran told Sky Sport Italia.

Rolando Maran felt Chievo deserved “all three points” from their 1-1 draw with Hellas Verona.

Lucas Castro’s header cancelled out an Eros Pisano opener at the Bentegodi.

“Considering the performance and the numerous scoring opportunities, we certainly deserved at the very least a point,” Maran told Sky Sport Italia.

“Bizarrely, we found ourselves behind to an offside goal. It is to be considered a positive result I suppose, but we wanted and deserved all three points.

“Hellas were very aggressive and took spaces away, but with patience we found ways through from the flanks and with long-range shots.

“We did everything possible to break through their defence, which was locked down in front of the goal. It’s just a shame we only managed a draw.”

Chievo have 12 points from seven rounds – eight more than rivals Hellas Verona.

“Obviously we have a good position in the table, but considering the way we’ve played this season and the chances we’ve created, I have to say we deserved to be even higher.

“The new players settled in well, but I had no doubts on the old guard. Seeing them train during the week, I know they can grow and improve further.

“In recent years Chievo showed a great ability to plan ahead and became a stable club in Serie A. Hellas have a lot of history, but Chievo are building up their history too.”
