Vanoli fury at Fiorentina: ‘We need real men, they don’t work for each other’

Paolo Vanoli went on a furious rant and revealed the Fiorentina penalty row was worse than previous thought. ‘We must apologise to our fans. We need real men at this moment, they don’t work for their teammates.’

The Viola remain rooted to the bottom of the table and without a single Serie A victory this season, a situation from which no team has managed to avoid relegation before.

They had taken the lead at the Mapei Stadium with a Rolando Mandragora penalty, only to crumble to a 3-1 loss against Sassuolo.
