Salvatore Sirigu reveals he lost two friends in the Paris terrorist attacks. “It’s hard to accept losing people you see almost every day.”
The Italy and Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper spoke to Rai Sport after a 2-2 friendly draw with Romania.
“There are many things to improve, perhaps we need to be a bit more efficient in the various duels around the pitch. We are working on it and aim to improve on these in training.”

The Italy and Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper spoke to Rai Sport after a 2-2 friendly draw with Romania.
“There are many things to improve, perhaps we need to be a bit more efficient in the various duels around the pitch. We are working on it and aim to improve on these in training.”
This evening two friendly games, Belgium-Spain and Germany-Netherlands, were cancelled due to security fears.
Sirigu was affected more than most players by what happened on Friday in Paris, as he lost two friends.
“They were two splendid kids I knew well, they were of Italian origin and worked in an Italian restaurant. Marco Verratti, I and others in the team were regulars at that place.
“It was hard to accept losing two people who you see almost every day.
“I think everyone acted in a dignified manner. We have to continue doing what we do every day, keeping our minds on those who are most affected by this.
“It’s difficult to accept, but life goes on and there are others we need to console.”
