Once the Italian Cup is over, what remains for Fiorentina and how much impact can an exit have on a match like this?
The mistake was not closing it on the first leg. In the end, it’s always the same Fiorentina mistakes that have an impact. Leaving aside the match in Bergamo, Fiorentina lost the semi-final at home, in Florence, when, despite an exciting offensive performance, they managed to reach the return match with only the slightest margin of advantage. Atalanta, on the other hand, didn’t have to be asked several times. Cold, cynical and effective, Gasperini’s team cuts Fiorentina in two and flies to the final to replicate the match against Juventus in the 20/21 season.
With the most concretely feasible objective gone, what is left for the Italiano team? The Conference remains, in terms of number of games, the easiest destination to see. Club Brugge represents, however, a difficult obstacle, but Fiorentina has what it takes to win the double-header and reach the final, making the most of all the errors that, from last year to today, have affected the results of the team Italian team. In the championship, the road is more complicated, even if only considering that fate is not in your hands. Fiorentina has nothing left to do but try to get back into the running and hope for the collapse of the teams up front. The calculations, in any case, will be done at the end of the season, but what was supposed to be the season of consolidation is turning out to be a photocopy season to that of last year.
