Speaking after the game, when asked about Gusto’s performance, Maresca vented about a frustrating few days.
“With so many problems, the players are doing very well after a complicated week,” he told reporters.
“Since I joined the club, the last 48 hours have been the worst since I joined the club because many people didn't support us.
“Worst 48 hours since I joined the club because people didn't support me or the team in general. I love the fans and we are very happy with the fans.”
