Frosinone coach Di Francesco furious with Roma goalscorer Huijsen

Frosinone coach Eusebio di Francesco was furious with Dean Huijsen during defeat to Roma.

Huijsen scored for Roma and celebrated by 'sshhing' Frosinone fans.

“I wanted to slap Hujisen because a young player can make errors but must not lack respect," said Di Francesco.

“The gesture was wrong. He lacked respect for the team and the fans. He tried to come here, he wanted to know a few things, we had spoken, but then he moved elsewhere. Daniele [De Rossi] was a leader on the pitch and I am sure he will make himself respected on the dugout too."

Frosinone are now three points above the relegation zone.

“We are in line with our target," insisted Di Francesco.

“Surely, we must be more resolute on the defensive front. If I were convinced to take more points at home by parking the bus, I'd do it. But we'd need characteristics that we do not have. We are not getting the results, but the performances are adequate. We melt too quickly, we concede one goal and then another one immediately after."
