(ANSA) – FLORENCE, MARCH 17 – ” We expect an opponent different from the last ones we faced, on Saturday we will go to the home of the Italian champions and we will have to be aware of facing the strongest and playing accordingly ”.
Vincenzo Italiano and his Fiorentina are preparing for Saturday’s trip to San Siro against Inter, the first of the five big matches that await the Viola from now to the end of the season: the others will be with Napoli and Milan away from home and with Roma and Juventus at the Franchi. Five challenges from which the Viola will have to try to get out unscathed if they want to stay in the race to the last for Europe.
” The Nerazzurri have a lot of physicality and a lot of quality in all departments – highlighted the Viola coach speaking on the official channels of the club -. For this we will have to try in every way to limit them by giving little and playing a purposeful football. Against the big players we must always fight and face them with a combative attitude. We will have to have the attitude of a team that knows it has to challenge the strongest. ”
Fiorentina, however, risks having to give up an important player like Bonaventura still sore from the blow he took to the knee last Sunday during the match against Bologna, for the rest all the others are currently available, including one of the most anticipated viola, Krzysztof Piatek.
The Polish striker answered the questions of some fans always through the Fiorentina channels: ” My only thought is to help the team in the next matches, scoring goals starting on Saturday against Inter. It’s a great team, champion of Italy, but we too are strong and aim to return to Europe. ”
Arrived on loan in January from Hertha Berlin with the right of redemption for 15 million, the Polish striker has already scored 6 goals in the purple jersey between the league and the Coppa Italia: “ When I sign my wife compliments me, when I can’t. … he eats me – he smiled – Even at the end of training, when I get home, he asks me if I scored. I feel I can do more and I’m improving, I’m a monster in the box, but I have to learn to do more, even in the defensive phase. ” (HANDLE).
