Gomez delighted with sudden Fiorentina scoring form

Fiorentina striker Mario Gomez was delighted with his brace in their Coppa Italia win over AS Roma.

Gomez has now struck four goals in two Coppa ties.

"I had a difficult moment, but it's also true that I was out injured for almost a year," he told Rai Sport.

"I needed strength to get to my best and now that I am in good shape, I have become more decisive in front of goal.

"I never doubted my quality. I want to talk about the team, though, as tonight we played a great game. In defence as in attack we showed quality and grit."
