According to TuttoMercatoWeb, Genoa coach De Rossi spoke at a pre-match press conference about the impact of the repeated changes in the kick-off time for Serie A's 37th round. He stated that many teams, including Genoa, were troubled by the wait for a decision, making it difficult even to plan training and rest schedules. He also acknowledged that it was not easy for all parties to make a decision and that everyone needed to accept such occasional situations.
De Rossi said: "We are preparing with a bit of annoyance, and I think it's the same for other teams left hanging by this decision." He commented on the "fluctuating" kick-off times for the 37th round of the league, a situation that also affected Genoa. The Rossoblu will face Milan, who are fighting for a Champions League spot.
De Rossi said: "Thankfully, this kind of thing only happens occasionally, and we have to accept it. I think it's a very stressful and difficult decision for all involved institutions, and they don't want to add more pressure."
De Rossi later added: "We don't know whether to give an extra day of rest or schedule an extra training session. This annoyance is not just ours; our opponents and other relevant teams are also facing the same problem."
