Meeting HighlightsFiorentina
They are a strong team, they have strengthened themselves to the point of having two different teams. They attack with many players and give few points of reference, but this attacking football creates problems for them defensively. We have to play our game and try to get them into trouble.
Team Status
We need to be determined in the last 20 meters. I would be worried if the team wasn't creating scoring opportunities or taking shots, but that's not the case. Not only did Lorenzo Lucca have a shot for Cagliari, Florian Thauvin also had two chances in the first half. We take the ball so much from corner kicks that the only thing missing is finishing. Our tall football players have proven that they can be decisive.

Manager on FiorentinaBonaventura
Will Bonaventura play? In such close matches, all it takes is a minor injury, a bit of pain, and you will be unavailable. He took a side hit, he wasn't 100%, we chose not to risk it. He will be available again for Udine on Sunday.
Attacking Football
Attacking players live for goals, but they should know that we have to think about the team, we send many players into attack, we do what needs to be done with great frequency. We are playing with a midfielder like Bonaventura in the second striker role. He must fill this space and create offensive solutions, but above all he must work concretely in the phase of winning the ball back. And I believe we will continue on this path. There will be times when we will use certain strategies, but so far this attacking midfielder gives us balance and allows us to express ourselves well.
