Fiorentina, Vincenzo Italiano’s recipe for overturning Rapid Vienna
Vincenzo Italiano’s words on the eve of Fiorentina-Rapid Vienna
Vincenzo Italiano spoke to the microphones of Sky Sport on the eve of the Conference League playoff return match against Rapid Vienna, who won the first leg 1-0. "To be angry after savoring the victory and losing two points to Lecce è normal – he admitted -. We had the chance to face this match with a victory, but we are used to file and restart playing every 2-3 days. Now we need an extra effort to overturn the negative result. It will serveà a different Fiorentina, with a different mental aspect and a different agonistic charge".
"If it comes immediately è better, but we will need maturity" and patience. We will not have to go in search of the goal in an obsessive manner, attacking with so many men,” he added. We will have to be proactive, this we will do tomorrow as well. We will have to look for the goal, but without losing balance. In recent matches when we concede chances we concede goals".
"We will have to be more careful, understanding well the moments of the match – he then stressed -. This is part of the growth, a maturation that also passes through some disappointments such as the Vienna knockout and some not 100 percent performance. There are many veterans, but we have also added new people who have to integrate. It will take maturity, patience and growth".
" I am convinced that last year’s path gave us so much, making us grow and mature. È a path that left us so much, but everything è different than the previous year. We have to prove ourselves on the field and those who è arrived this year have to fill in some gaps for us in terms of experience, quality and structure. The mix we have created must make us grow as much as possible. We are at the beginning, we are a construction site: è soon to have the new ones at 100 percent" he commented Italiano.
