Valon Berisha, midfielder today at LASK Linz (who will face Fiorentina in the 5th round of the Conference League maxi group tomorrow, at 6.45pm) and with a career spent with Lazio in Serie A, he presented the European challenge from the Viola Park conference room.
Berisha says: “The players we will face tomorrow are all strong. A strong team in name and in fact, we also want the 3 points, even if a draw is convenient for us. For us it makes no difference who we play against, we want to win. We have analyzed well Fiorentina, we are prepared. Serie A is a tactical championship, and we expect it again tomorrow. The match will be very difficult, we must also take into account the pressure of the match, we must remain calm.”
His coach Schopp, however, framed the challenge like this: “Fiorentina is a team that has developed in an intense and compact way. An excellent team both in defense and in attack, we expect a great match. We have to suffer at the moment, we have lost 3 games in a row. The situation gives us annoying, the season has been affected by many things. We can still qualify, which is why we need an excellent result. We know it will be a difficult match. We have had a few injuries, including some important, quality players.”
