The Italian Serie A side Lecce have revealed that their defensive flaws could be the reason why they have struggled this season. In an interview with the club's official website, head coach Giampaolo Pozzo admitted that his team has been conceding too many goals and conceded six in their last game against Bologna.
Pozzo said: "We're not doing well defensively at the moment. We've conceded six goals in our last game, which is too much for us. We need to work on our defensive structure and make sure we're not giving away easy goals."
The defender who was released by the club in January 2019, Domenico Di Matteo, believes that the team needs to improve their defensive tactics. He added: "Our defense has been struggling recently, but I think we can fix it. We need to learn from our mistakes and work harder to defend better."
The team also faces problems with injuries to key players such as goalkeeper Andrea Consigli and defender Marco Mancuso. Consigli has been out since February due to injury while Mancuso missed the last two games due to suspension.
In conclusion, Lecce needs to address their defensive issues if they want to improve their performance in the league. The team must work hard to improve their defensive structures and prevent their opponents from scoring easily. With the right approach, the team can turn things around and compete at the top level.
