Roma coach Paulo Fonseca blames fatigue for Parma defeat

AS Roma coach Paulo Fonseca feels his players are suffering from fatigue after defeat to Parma.

The Giallorossi lost 2-0 at the Stadio Tardini, with Mattia Sprocati and Andreas Cornelius scoring the goals for Parma.

Fonseca stated, "The team is tired at the moment and we have seen it, it is not a question of attitude, but right now we are not fast and responsive. The break will be useful. Parma are always dangerous on the counter attack, and they created several chances because we took risks.

"We wanted to win and we gave up space, defensively we were poor in the second half, though even in the first half we had problems."
