The 26-year-old striker opened the game in spectacular fashion, with two goals in fifteen minutes, but the team wasn't able to defend the lead.

The 26-year-old striker opened the game in spectacular fashion, with two goals in fifteen minutes, but the team wasn't able to defend the lead.

“Starting out so well should have been an advantage and not a setback,” he told the Press after the game. “After the bad epidose of the penalty we failed to stay calm the way we had to and keep up the performance from the first 20 minutes.

“The goal we conceded at the end of the first half had its effect on us. In the second half both teams played some good football, but Genoa did well in scoring the third goal. That's what we couldn't do.

“We have one week to prepare the derby [against Juventus]. We're very keen on that. We want to make points and we want to get back on track.

“In the Coppa Italia we lost 4-0 to Juventus, and that's always unpleasant. We want to avenge that.

“The national team is an objective, of course, but the team comes first.”
