Napoli, just a draw and so many mistakes in Florence. After the encouraging victory against Sampdoria, the Blues stumble again: still a 0-0, this time against a gracious Fiorentina and well put in place. So Carlo Ancelotti spoke in the post game: "A good result does not seem to me, we lost two points that we deserved - he explained - It was an impeccable match, then some finalizations were missed and this forced us to this result. "I do not think it has any impact." The team made the performance, the victory would have been well deserved. "Fabian Ruiz not brilliant:" He's a different player from Hamsik, the Fabian-Allan is very reliable, it's not a linear tandem like the one with Hamsik, he changes the vision of our game with him, but not the substance, he plays more vertically ".
Mertens still not very incisive in the door: "He is not lucky - continued Ancelotti - the two opportunities he had created thanks to his movement. Then there was no coldness in front of the goalkeeper, who has many merits. There has been one of ours, but thanks to Lafont ". And again: "The only difficulty encountered in the first half was the exit from behind, often Meret was forced to postpone long. We could do a little better, but after that pressure we did well. We arrived in front of the goalkeeper in a clear, but missed the final blow. I do not judge my team from the result. I saw a good team, alive. We just have to realize. Scudetto? Yesterday we had 9 points, today we have 8 points. At the most, hope goes out tomorrow, now it's a bit 'more heated ". A final joke on the recovery time of Albiol: "It has this inflammation that we are checking, after which a precise diagnosis will be established in the week and the recovery times, which should not be very long", he concluded.
