Federico Chiesa has begun 2019 in the best way. Pioli, Macini and others repeated: "he must score more." The result? Seven goals in the first months of this year. Two goals against Chievo and Torino, a hat-trick against Roma.
Against Napoli he suffered together with his teammates. The youngster didn't score, but he came close: "We had a good team performance - he said at the Fiorentina Store during an event - they are a tough team, that hurts you with play of great champions and possession. We were great to hold on and bring a point home."
Fiorentina has not lost in seven games. They are in the semifinal of the Coppa Italia and are on the path to reach the Europa League. The next game is against Spal: "It is an important game even taking into account the various direct matches we have remaining for a place in Europe. They are a tough team to beat, but we will do everything to reach our objectives."
The captain for the game in Ferrara will be Chiesa himself: "It's an absolute honor to wear the captain's armband for Fiorentina. It is the symbol of Davide, which fills me with honor."
