1-2 and once again we conceded at the last minute. Without these three late goals we will have qualified, and now we are only content with Europa League. We played the game well but did not take our chances, and the Viola capitalized their chances and took them well.
It is good to see Aquilani finally starts and Torres back in contention. We deadly missed them.
Players Rating:
Cavalieri: 7.5 Made many good saves.
Darby: 6.5 A bit nervous in his debut and made two mistakes that lead to both goals conceded.
Skrtel: 6.5 Made covers for Darby.
Agger: 6.5 A solid defensive performance.
Insua: 6.5 Not going forward too often.
Gerrard: 7 Getting closer to his normal level.
Mascherano: 6.5 Made many tackles.
Benayoun: 7 Scored another goal and become our CL top scorer this season - with 2 goals.
Aquilani: 7 A stylish first start and we would like to see more from him.
Dossena: 6.5 Left midfield is a more suitable position for him.
Kuyt: 6.5 Did not provide too many threats.
Substitutions:
Torres: 7 Came up and changed the flow of the game.
Pacheco: 6.5 A nice debut from the promising new start.
Aurelio: 6.5 Not enough time to impress.
Rafa: 6.5 Still need to change the psychology of the team to become more positive. It is time to serious consider playing Aquilani more.
Fiorentina: 6.5 Well deserved to qualify.
Man of the Match: Cavalieri. Would be great to see him involved more in the FA Cup and Europa League.
