Fiorentina: Pioli says team still believes despite setbacks | OneFootball

At the end of the match between Milan and Fiorentina, the coach of the Viola, Stefano Pioli, spoke at the usual post-match press conference where he explained the reasons behind his team's defeat.

Fiorentina, Pioli reassures fans at the press conference: “Despite everything that’s happening to us, I see a group that believes”

Luck really doesn’t seem to want to knock on Stefano Pioli and his Fiorentina’s door, once again defeated in the league in the most bitter way possible. Currently, Fiorentina is at the bottom of the standings, tied on points with Pisa and Genoa. At the end of the match against Milan, the Viola coach spoke at the usual post-match press conference, where he explained the reasons that led to his team’s defeat.

These were his statements: Do I feel the club’s trust? That’s one of the reasons I’m disappointed by the results we’re not achieving: they have invested a lot in me and in my work but unfortunately we’re not getting results. We have to try to do better, all of us, not just me. Penalty? By doing this, we encourage players to keep simulating, to put their hands on their faces, and not just in the penalty area. As soon as a player puts his hands on his face at the first contact, everyone blows the whistle. Then I always go back to the first rule they always told us: VAR intervenes if there is a clear and obvious error by the referee, you tell me if this was one… What a pity.”

“How is Kean? Moise started to feel discomfort in his ankle afterwards and had lost a week of training, Piccoli could have given us more energy: Kean did what he had to do. With only Nicolussi, we built up more with Madragora and Fagioli further forward. We could have played more vertically in some situations. We conceded the equalizer while we were still down to ten men and then that penalty. We didn’t deserve to lose.”
