Vincenzo Montella said Fiorentina’s 3-1 victory over Cesena will “boost morale” ahead of the Sevilla semi-final.
The Viola had lost four Serie A games in a row before today’s comfortable win at the Stadio Franchi.
“This victory will boost morale and self-confidence,” the Coach told Mediaset Premium.
“We wanted the win to get back fifth place and now our minds can go to Sevilla for Thursday’s Europa League semi-final.
“I watched Sevilla play Real Madrid yesterday and they are a very well-constructed team. We really wanted this success to get us in the best headspace for the semi-final.
“Sevilla are a tough side who defend with good organisation and know how to attack. We will play to win.”
Montella defended his “scientific squad rotation,” which many have blamed for the Serie A setbacks.
“It doesn’t always work, but it is necessary. Alberto Gilardino? He’s a player who always knows what to do and in the box still represents one of the best around.”
