Brescia, Corini: "Balotelli? He's at risk with a knee injury."

Brescia manager Eugenio Corini spoke to the press prior to tomorrow night's home match against Fiorentina, touching upon the injury status of Mario Balotelli.

"He would have preferred to play, but the calendar is crammed and we have 3 matches in 6 days in front of us. In the past few days he's done therapy for a small knee injury. I'll evaluate well who to send onto the pitch, we will need players with certain characteristics because Fiorentina plays very well with the ball. I like the generous ones who give everything for the squad."

On Tonali, who debuted for the Azzurri: "I am happy for him, he showed what he can do and to have Mancini's confidence. It's another step for growth. All these steps are useful to grow maturity and clarity.  For me, he's ready to continue the great season he's having. If you nurture the child that remains inside of you to something you love, you have fun and only like this you do well."
