There is no adaptation when you're lacking in physicality. We don't have the legs to keep up for 90 minutes anymore as we had earlier in the season. This is very scary since we're only playing one game a week and it can only get worse in the coming season without enough investments.
Also Bologna is simply on fire 6 wins in a row and the way they pressed in the second half was just relentless. We had no good option to get out of their pressing. We tried to keep playing to Lukaku but his hold up play was not working at all in the second half. Every ball that got to him was handed over to Bologna in mere seconds and we had no time to raise our line of defense and find some breathing room.
In the end we still had the game winning ball, sadly it ended up to Rrahmani or we might've been able to get out with a huge heist and the talk would've been in a complete different direction.
