game.
The Vesuviani faced a humiliating 3-0 defeat at the hands of the Bianconeri, which saw their hopes of a third-spot finish dampen substantially in the league.
The Partenopei are set to face the capital club, where a victory will level them with the Aquile for the final Champions League qualification spot in Serie A.
Fernandez insisted that the team is looking to make a new start, and have been training intensely for the crucial game. He insisted that their absolute best will be required in the game in order to snatch the three points from
the opposition. The Azzurri guard stated that the second goal against Juventus broke their back in the contest, and they never looked like recovering from there.
While talking to the press, the 23-year-old said:
“We have started again, we are training with great intensity. We want to get the three points and must play to the maximum of our potential. We must forget the defeat against Juventus, after the second goal we were disjointed.”
The former Estudiantes defender insisted that it was a torment for him to see Chelsea sail through Benfica, in the quarter-final of the UEFA Champions League. The Azzurri guard was full of repentance and expressed his belief that
had they stood their ground against Chelsea, they could have easily gone on to the semi-final.
However, the centre back expressed his hope that the team will return to the European championship next year, and make their mark on the big stage.
“I saw http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786’s game in the Champions League this week. Had we stayed in then we could have won through to the semi-final.”
Fernandez insisted that he is finally settling down at his new club, and has been closely following Walter Mazzarri’s directions. The defender insisted that the whole focus of the team is towards finishing the season with a third-spot
finish in Serie A and the Coppa Italia.
