Vincenzo Montella, the coach of Florence's "Fiorentina," celebrated the victory against Turin's "Juventus" and emphasized that he did not expect such a good performance from the team's newcomer Mohamed Salah.
It's worth noting that in January, the 22-year-old footballer arrived in Italy on loan from London's "Chelsea." He joined "Fiorentina" after Juan Cuadrado left for the "blues," and so far his debut in Italy has been impeccable.
Yesterday, V. Montella's team faced off against the "Bianconeri" in the semifinals of the Italian Cup. The Egyptian took the initiative in this match, and his brace secured a 1-2 victory for "Fiorentina." In a total of seven matches played, M. Salah has already scored six goals.
"Salah is in great form and we hope he will maintain it. He integrated into the team very quickly. We knew he would be good, but honestly, he exceeded expectations," Montella said.
"The match against 'Juventus' was excellent. We played well both in attack and defense. The opponents tried to equalize the score until the last minutes, but we will play in Florence with an advantage," concluded the strategist.
