Vincenzo Montella: 'Fiorentina must show character against Udinese'

Fiorentina manager Vincenzo Montella says that his side must show "character" when they face Udinese in their Coppa Italia semi-final this evening.

Fiorentina manager Vincenzo Montella has said that his side must show "character" when they face Udinese in their Coppa Italia semi-final second leg this evening.

The Viola fell to a 2-1 defeat in the first leg last week, but Montella is hopeful that his team can come from behind to book their place in the final.

"We must show clear heads and character to overcome what is a testing encounter," he told the club's official website. "Udinese have knocked out Inter and AC Milan. They know how to wait for you and can strike through players like (Antonio) Di Natale.

"For us it would be a prestigious achievement and for the ownership I think it would be reward for everything they've invested. It's great to be able to play games like this.

"The crowd has always got behind us, even when we've struggled. I'm sure they'll give us something extra tomorrow."

The second Coppa Italia semi-final between Napoli and Roma takes place tomorrow evening.
