Gigi Del Neri said Verona “proved we can fight it out with the best” after grabbing a point away to Fiorentina.

The Viola are in the running for a top three finish, yet were pegged back on home turf by the bottom club.

“As long as it’s mathematically possible for us to stay in Serie A, we have to believe, because we’ve got the quality needed to survive,” the Coach told Rai Sport.

“As long as it’s mathematically possible for us to stay in Serie A, we have to believe, because we’ve got the quality needed to survive,” the Coach told Rai Sport.

“It is difficult, we know that, but it is our duty to believe and I see it in the way my lads approach the games. We have to play without pressure, because we’ve got nothing to lose.

“Today we proved we can fight it out with the best. Mentally we are prepared for the battles that await us.”

The relegation race is increasingly tight, as Verona are now eight points adrift of safety – awaiting Palermo’s meeting with Napoli tonight.

Above Verona, there are 10 teams in a 10-point radius, so anything could still happen.
