    Diawara: Preparation and execution the key tonight


    Amadou Diawara was satisfied with a job well done on Sunday evening, as Roma beat Fiorentina 2-1 at the Stadio Olimpico.

    The Giallorossi moved within one win of a place in next season’s Europa League thanks to two penalties from Jordan Veretout – and extended their unbeaten streak to six games in the process.

    “It’s a really important win, we are doing well and we want to make sure this continues,” Diawara said.

    “We knew it was going to be a tough game, Fiorentina are a good side. But we prepared for the game well and we did on the pitch what the coach asked us to do produce.”

    He added: “Physically we are better, we’ve found a bit more consistency in recent games. After the lockdown it wasn’t easy to rediscover our best but now we are in good form and want to continue on this path.”

    The midfielder noted that the recent switch to a 3-4-2-1 formation had improved the side in both phases of the game.

    “This formation helps us a lot,” he said.

    “We leave fewer opportunities for counter attacks and in front of us we have so many man and so many passing options. The change in system has really helped.”
