De Martino: "The team fought until the end, it’s a shame we didn’t come away with any points"

Lumezzane - Head coach Vincenzo De Martino’s comments at the end of Lumezzane-Hellas Verona, Matchday 1 of the 2026/27 Serie B Women’s Championship.

Coach, what is your assessment of the match? “The result does not reflect what we saw on the pitch. In the second half, there was only one team on the field: Verona. The team fought until the end, dominating the game and creating chances. Unfortunately, we were missing the finishing touch in front of goal. We played on an even footing against a strong team, despite the individual defensive mistake that gave Lumezzane the lead. It’s a shame we didn’t come away with the points we thoroughly deserved".
