As has happened in other European championships, Serie A faces several teams with outbreaks of Covid-19. A situation that, in José Mourinho’s view, does not distort the sporting truth of the championship.
In the preview of the game with Milan, the Roma coach did not want to talk about falsified results due to the absence of athletes infected with Covid-19.
“I don’t think we should talk about falsified results. If a team has three or four positive cases, as has happened to us, you can’t say that the result is unfair. Now if a club doesn’t have a goalkeeper, it would be a huge injustice. But there are rules and they are simple: if you have the minimum number of players, you have to go to the game», he explained.
And speaking of the duel with the Milanese, Mourinho confirmed the return of Rui Patrício to the Roman goal.
«Rui Patrício is recovered and will play. We know that it comes from two weeks without games and that always takes some intensity, but it worked well during the holidays and we are confident”, he stressed.
