Lazio director Igli Tare has explained dropping Keita Balde Diao for the Super Cup.
Tare spoke before victory over Juventus.
“I think it's easier than harder, because we can't do worse," Tare told Rai Sport.
He was asked about the exclusion of Keita from the squad.
“The player was not calm over the last few days, he was in a way perplexed at having to play this game, so the Coach evaluated his condition and the final decision was clear for everyone.
“Soon the Keita and Stefan de Vrij situations will be clarified."
