Read Sporting Director Roberto Goretti’s post-match comments following the UEFA Conference League match between Mainz and Fiorentina

Conceding a last-minute goal by the opponents really hurts hurts.

“It does. Coach [Daniele] Galloppa did a good job. The team played a good match. It really was a shame. We’re in this tough situation right now. We must work together and stay united to find a new balance in this complicated situation.”

It really looked like the team wanted to win tonight. They even had some chances to double their lead, but then Mainz made a great comeback and won.

“The players are well aware of what the club is going through. They know that they have to remain united and give it their all. They need to train hard to find the unity and harmony they need to reach the results we need.”

What was good and what needs to be improved?

“We have to train, a lot. That’s what we need.”

You have a very important away game against Genoa coming up.

“We must consider every Serie A match extremely important, just like every Conference League match. We must focus on one game at a time. We must try to do our best, do better and bounce back.”
