Marco Baroni sees “no reason to back off or lower our guard” after Frosinone kept safety hopes alive with a shock 1-0 win away to Fiorentina.
The Canarini secured back-to-back Serie A victories for the first time in their history, as Daniel Ciofani came off the bench to score late on, having already sealed a midweek 3-2 win over Parma.

“We are a team who can only play with a high tempo and aggressive approach, so we invited Fiorentina forward and hit them on the counter,” the Coach told DAZN.
“Victories do give you more self-confidence and it’s the best medicine in a difficult situation. I think we put in good performances even in defeat, for example against SPAL.
“There is still a lot of work to be done, but we won’t give in. We know it’s tough and we cannot afford any slip-ups, but it doesn’t hurt to dream. I see no reason to back off or lower our guard.”
This was a particularly special game at the Stadio Franchi for Baroni.
“Florence is my city, I came up through the Fiorentina youth academy and it is always a pleasure to be here, even as an opponent.”
