Iachini praises "desire and professionalism" of Fiorentina squad

ACF Fiorentina

Beppe Iachini was full of praise for his players after they finished the 2019/20 Serie A season with a 3-1 win over SPAL in Ferrara on Sunday afternoon.

The Fiorentina coach spoke of his satisfaction with the way his squad have kept their focus and concentration levels high despite having secured their Serie A status with a few games to spare.

“We didn’t want to rest on our laurels even when we knew we were safe with four or five games to go – we were 12 points above the relegation zone and had moved ourselves away from it,” said Iachin. “We wanted to keep going. I didn’t want the lads to just give up – I wanted to build the right kind of mentality and for us to put in big performances and get results. I wanted us to win as many matches as possible and the lads bought into that, so I’m pleased for them and for the president, who was very keen for us to finish in the top half of the table.”
Looking back over the journey since taking over at the club midway through the season, Iachini – fresh from being confirmed as the Fiorentina coach for the 2020/21 campaign – credited his players with providing the impetus for the upturn in form that followed.
“We were fourth from bottom when we started – it was a very tricky situation and there was a difficult atmosphere and a lot of pressure on the team,” he said. “We needed to get up the table and quickly. It was about working hard and getting down to it. I want to thank the lads because they always showed a lot of desire and professionalism. Gradually we got to know each other and created a good, tight group that was in a position to go out home and away to win games, do the shirt justice and do everything possible to get as many points as we could.”

Five things you need to know about SPAL v Fiorentina

ACF Fiorentina

With the help of Fiorentina Museum, we’ve complied a handful of facts and figures on previous meetings between SPAL and Fiorentina.

1. SPAL and Fiorentina have played each other 21 times in Ferrara: 18 in Serie A (6 Viola victories, 7 draws, 5 defeats), one in Serie B (1-1 on 12 March 1939), one in Prima Divisione (3-1 to SPAL on 7 November 1926) and one in the Coppa Italia (3-0 to SPAL on 6 September 1964). The overall record is 7 SPAL wins, 8 draws and 6 Fiorentina wins, with SPAL scoring 27 to Fiorentina’s 24.

2. Fiorentina’s first win in Ferrara came on 4 May 1952: 2-1, with goals by Swedish striker Ekner and Beltrandi. Fiorentina ended that season in fourth place, taking 43 points from 38 games (two points for a win). SPAL meanwhile finished the campaign in ninth, six points below. The seeds of the Viola’s formidable Scudetto-winning side – three years later – had already been sown, with the likes of Ardico Magnini, Francesco Rosetta and Beppe Chiappella featuring that day.

3. SPAL have always been a tough nut for Fiorentina to crack. Even in the Viola’s 1955/56 title season, SPAL earned a 0-0 draw in Florence and in the reverse fixture only succumbed to the already crowned champions by a single Sergio Carpanesi goal on 13 May 1956,

4. Another example of SPAL’s stubbornness came in the 1958/59 season (21 December 1958) when a free-scoring Viola team – who ended the campaign in second place plundering 95 goals, still a record for an 18-team league – were held to a goalless draw in Ferrara. SPAL went one better in Florence later in the season as they triumphed 2-1, with goals by Oltramari and Morbello overturning Lojacono’s opening penalty.

5. On the other hand, Fiorentina waltzed to a 4-1 success the last time these sides met in Ferrara, with Edimilson, Veretout (penalty), Simeone and Gerson on the score sheet. That game saw a rare example of a goal being taken away from one team and awarded to the other. In the 71st minute Chiesa was brought down by Felipe in the box but the referee Pairetto let play continue; down the other end Fares crossed for Valoti to make it 2-1 to SPAL, but then the VAR Mazzoleni called Felipe’s foul on Chiesa to Pairetto’s attention. After six minutes of analysis and protests, Veretout stepped up to convert from 12 yards and make it 2-1 to Fiorentina.

Serie A tickets

Juventus claimed their 9th consecutive Scudetto on Week 36 after defeating Sampdoria. Ironically, Juventus lost their last 2 games ending with a sour note the last game of the season at the Allianz Stadium with a score of Juventus 1 – 3 AS Roma.    A prestigious victory for the Roman gladiators  claiming the full 3 points beating Italy’s Champions.  Roma ended in the 5th position with 70 points. Nevertheless, these 2 defeats did not ruin the Scudetto’s celebration for Juventus.

The direct match for the 2nd position Atalanta vs Inter ended in favor of Inter with a 0-2.  Inter defeated Atalanta at the Gewiss Stadium.  Sadly, Atalanta was unrecognizable.  Inter kept the 2nd position reaching 82 points ending only -1 point below Juventus with 83 points.  Atalanta ended in the 3rd position with 78 points.  Good news is that both Atalanta and Inter qualified to participate in the 2020-2021 UEFA Champions League.

Napoli defeated Lazio with a 3-1 at the San Paolo Stadium.  The added punch to boost the morale of the team ahead of their Champions League match against Barcelona.  A sour lost for Lazio because after being for many weeks in the 2nd position ended the season in the 4th position.  Surely, it is a disappointment.

AC Milan ended the season with positive reviews.  AC Milan returned after the forced stop due to COVID-19 highly motivated and managed to reach the 6th position with 66 points to be within the European zone.  AC Milan defeated Cagliari at the San Siro Stadium with a 3-0.  A superb forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic pushig Milan’s bandwagon to lead the team lifting their morale.  Cagliari Coach Walter Zenga was sacked.

SPAL saluted the Serie A, sadly, with a home defeat.  Fiorentina claimed the away victory defeating SPAL with a 1-3.   The adventure of SPAL in Serie A was totally negative winning only 5 games, 5 draws and losing 28.
