“We’ve always believed in survival,” Iachini, who replaced Serse Cosmi this term, told Radio Anch’Io Lo Sport on Monday. “Yesterday we had our say in a very difficult match.
“We don’t think about the deduction which was given to us at the start of the season. We just aim to prepare for each match in the best way possible.

Siena have won four of their last eight games in the Division, victories fuelled by the five goals of Innocent Emeghara in his seven matches.
