http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Giorgio-Chiellini-c14963 has warned his team against complacency in their upcoming match against relegation-candidates Novara, and insists that the team will need persistence in order to break down the seemingly modest opponents.
The Old Lady grabbed precious three-points from their game against Cesena, thanks to a late winner from substitute http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marco-Borriello-c23672, which saved the game that seemed like a destined stalemate.

The Bianconeri defender insisted that the two teams may be placed at the bottom of the points table, but the possibility of relegation has turned them into cornered http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Tigers-c40730 with a nothing to lose.
The former Fiorentina player insisted that no team can be considered modest in the last phase of the season, where the hunger for points is escalated many-fold. He insisted that the win is another step towards the Scudetto, and they must see-off their next
game with extreme caution in order to consolidate their supremacy in the league.
While talking to the press, the 27-year-old said:
“I’ve always maintained that the toughest ties would be the ones against Cesena and Novara. They’re two teams with nothing to lose, both are looking to redeem themselves and both play on synthetic pitches. Now we’ve won the first of these two games, but
there’s still an important crossroad that lies ahead. We certainly didn’t underestimate Cesena, but it becomes tough when you’re not able to break the deadlock.”

the match.
