Di Canio Got More Than He Expected

Paolo Di Canio feels his side are moving in the right direction after they came from behind to beat Tottenham 3-1 and secure their place in the final of the Barclays Asia Trophy in Hong Kong. Paolo Di Canio: "A win is always good but the way it came made me happy because it is the first official game in a tournament against one of the best sides in the (Premier) League. "The pitch wasn't good but the team have made a sort of revolution playing at this level. "I saw many things that made me happy and we want to create a clear identity. "We did OK. There is still a job to do but I am very satisfied and we are going to work harder because we won only one game. "We still don't know each other but we went 1-0 down and came back to win 3-1 in style. "Today I saw what I want to see at this stage of the season. To be honest, I saw a bit more than I expected."
