Bologna in their opening Serie A match of the season.

The team from the capital got off to a great start with goals from Lucas Biglia and Kishna, who arrived from Ajax earlier this summer, in the opening 23 minutes of the contest, but the Serie A new boys got one back through Matteo Mancosu just before half-time and kept the Aquile on their toes until the final whistle.

“There was not a decline [in our performance] in the second half, but the goal at the end of the first half put us in a difficult situation,” de Vrij told Sky Sport Italia.

“[Bologna] scored on their first opportunity, but we are glad we took the three points.

“Kishna did well, it is not easy at first in the Serie A, but he scored a beautiful goal and must continue his form.

“We are happy for him and for the entire team.”
