"Fiorentina have the weapons to put us in great difficulty, but we know that there are situations in which we can also put them in difficulty."

Cagliari coach Davide Nicola thus launches the challenge to the Viola in view of Monday's match at the Domus . And he is keen to point out: «To do this, we must be decisive in certain defensive situations. We must be practical without giving up the construction of the ball. In short, we must limit them without limiting ourselves».

The adrenaline is rising at the “Crai Sport Center” in Assemini, the goal is getting closer and you can really feel the atmosphere of the match that counts during the press conference.

«Even though for me all the matches are important because they can all bring us closer to the goal», Nicola points out.

"That's why I prefer to focus on the mentality, on the attitude, an aggressive attitude," he insists. "More than ever, this is the time to push to try to hit the target as soon as possible."

During the week he and the team went over Fiorentina to understand how to contain them and where to try to hit them. "They are a very qualitative team, they translate all the play they produce into goals, percentage-wise. They are able to change the playing system during the same match. They can then count on important individuals who can decide the result at any moment." Having said that: "I am confident and I trust my team. I see the boys growing."

Deiola is suspended, Jankto has stayed home with a fever. All the others are at the disposal of the rossoblù coach who, once again, will be spoiled for choice in every department.
