Lorenzo D’Anna praised Chievo for “not losing our heads” at 2-0 down, as they fought back to hold Roma and very nearly won it.

The Flying Donkeys were 2-0 down, but clawed back a draw at the Olimpico and would’ve won it with the last kick of the game had Robin Olsen not fingertipped the Emanuele Giaccherini curler on to the crossbar.

“It wasn’t a bad first half all told, but we worked on what needed improving during the half-time break,” the Coach told DAZN.

“It was very hot and we were struggling at 2-0 down, but we believed in ourselves and maintained our philosophy of football, even going close to a winner at the end.

“Chievo are on the right path. We had for a moment feared it’d be a repeat of the Fiorentina game (which they lost 6-1), but instead the team didn’t lose their heads.”

It has been a rough few days for Chievo, who were docked three points for false accounting, so even after this result are still at -1.
