man I fuckin' love this guy, what a fuckin' player.

His hold-up play in the 2nd half won us the match.
I don't know wtf happened, but half that second half it seemed I was watching Matri hold up the ball in the Fiorentina end, surrounded by four Fiorentina defenders, and without a single teammate in view. :shocked:

But I love his fall right before getting up, picking up the assist from Pepe, and scoring that last goal. That was sweet. :D

I'm worried about Vucinic's lack of finishing thus far. Matri has been able to counterbalance that a lot.

Excellent performance, but it's not like nobody else noticed. :D

Apart from a few awkward touches/passes he did everything right. He gave Viola's defence a very hard time with his running and lead the line brilliantly. If he keeps playing like this, he's exactly what we've needed on top.

Too bad that shot didn't go in. The one where he was facing away from the goal and trying to curl it into the right corner. Amazing save by the Viola keeper.
