Roma coach praises Nael El Aynaoui's performance

Gian Piero Gasperini, Roma's Italian coach, confirmed his great satisfaction with the level presented by Moroccan international Nael El Aynaoui during the match against Bologna, praising his development and strong performance.

Gasperini said in statements to the DAZN channel after the match that Al-Aynaoui performed very well in the first half of the season, until his participation in the African Cup of Nations, where he quickly adapted to the team and gave excellent performances.

The Italian coach added that the Moroccan player was affected after his return from the African Championship, in addition to the controversy that accompanied that period, noting that the technical staff was required to give him sufficient time to regain his energy after the great efforts he made there.

Gasperini stressed that Al-Aynaoui is a good player and has a positive personality, highlighting that what he presented against Bologna confirms his return to his true level, after he made a mark in a big match and clearly contributed to his team’s victory.

Moroccan international Nael El Aynaoui contributed to Roma's victory over its host Bologna with two unanswered goals, yesterday, Saturday, in the thirty-fourth round of the Italian League.

Al-Aynaoui scored his team's second goal in stoppage time of the first half, after he took advantage of a perfect cross inside the penalty area and put the ball into the net.

Al-Aynaoui also provided an assist in the first goal for his teammate Donyell Malen, who opened the scoring early in the seventh minute.

This is El Aynaoui’s first goal in the Italian League this season with the “Wolves”, continuing his influential presence with the Italian team.
