Late match thread - sorry. Babacar on early and makes a huge play to keep the ball moving forward to Jovetic, who made a great cross, and a nifty little near side header for a goal by Gila. 1-1. We got very lucky that Comotto wasn't called for a foul in our area just a few moments before. He really should have been.
FT 1-3! We win. Gila scores late with a header, and then in the last min of extra time Napoli had their goalie up for a corner to try to get the tie, but we ended up with the ball and ran down to knock it into the empty net. A win at last! Woohoo!
Fiorentina were the superior team today. La viola knew when to make the right runs and their players combined very well in possession. Gila always made a presence and could have added to his two goals, Frey made some great saves and Jovetic once again provided flair and invention. That last goal was a laugh though. De Sanctis was a stronzo! De Laurentiis and Mazzarri were talking s**t when they said that they should have won. Napoli did take the lead and they should have got a penalty but other than that, they didn't keep possession well and they lacked movement. Hamsik did f**k all too!
Jovetic is the man to pay the bills, such a great player - good win today - still hope you guys finish 4th
