Pisacane jokes about losing his voice: "I'd rather win some matches than a Ballon d'Or"

Cagliari manager Pisacane joked about losing his voice after Roma defeat, quipping he'd settle for winning matches rather than a Ballon d'Or.

Cagliari lost 4-2 to Roma but Pisacane was pleased with his team's performance and attitude on the pitch. Speaking in the mixed zone with a hoarse voice, the manager made light of the situation when DAZN journalist Edoardo Testoni compared it to Harry Kane's recent viral interview after winning the Ballon d'Or. "I'd be happy just winning a few matches, we'll leave the Ballon d'Or to others," Pisacane said with a smile.

Despite the defeat, Pisacane emphasized the positives: "I wanted to lose like this, not by relying on Caprile to bail us out." He praised his young squad's dignity and tactical approach, noting that some opponents had forced Cagliari to play well. He also highlighted the return to form of attacking players Nzola and Fadera, calling them important acquisitions, and gave special praise to Yahya Trepy.
