Roberto De Zerbi believes Sassuolo ‘have evolved’ and insists the Neroverdi want to qualify for Europe.
Sassuolo have leapfrogged Roma in seventh after an away 2-1 win over Genoa, but the Giallorossi face already-relegated Crotone at home at 17.00 (UK time).
“I am glad about the first 25 minutes of football and for the way we fought in the last ten,” De Zerbi told Sky Sport Italia.

Sassuolo have leapfrogged Roma in seventh after an away 2-1 win over Genoa, but the Giallorossi face already-relegated Crotone at home at 17.00 (UK time).
“I am glad about the first 25 minutes of football and for the way we fought in the last ten,” De Zerbi told Sky Sport Italia.
“I am happy the team is responding well. It means I am training a group of players with great values.
“Today’s game was not easy because the irrigation system did not work, so the field was dry and the ball’s movement was not speedy.
“We have evolved, and this gives me great satisfaction. We have understood that sometimes we must fight and that quality is not always the most important thing,” the coach added.
The Neroverdi’s target is to qualify for the UEFA Conference League.
“We want to try until the end. Reaching Europe would be something that goes beyond the sporting merit,” said De Zerbi.
“These games are crucial for us. I don’t want us to think we have nothing to lose. Reaching Europe is a target we set yers ago, so we must give everything until the end.”
