Genoa coach Andrea Mandorlini had no complaints after defeat to Sampdoria.

Luis Muriel scored the only goal when intercepting a weak Olivier Ntcham pass across to Ezequiel Munoz.

“It was a risky pass, errors happen in a game and they did well to capitalise on it. Aside from that, our second half was less tight, less aggressive, we had a few players in the middle booked and were therefore more reticent," the Coach told Mediaset Premium.

“Incidents can affect the course of a game, but we could've done better. The first half was more our plan, closing down certain passing channels and the bookings made us less determined into that tackle.

“I could've substituted them earlier, but you can't make all your changes due to bookings. Overall the team should've been more aggressive and not allow Sampdoria to pass it around."
