Adrian Mutu scored two times in only fifteen minutes for the viola group, after he returned between Fiorentina's titulars, newly recovered from his accident at his elbow that happened a week before.

After Bologna's technician, Sinisa Mihajlovici, said that the team's goalgetter is better than the Romanian, Mutu returned him a reply:
"Mutu? Giraldino? Nobody was better than Di Avio. Marco was sensational this season, scored many times and helped us very much when trying to avoid the retrogradation. He also deserves to be in the national team!"

Fiorentina's technician, Cesare Prandelli, declared that Mutu is essential for the team and that he is very thrilled about Mutu's return on the field. "Mutu? He played very good! Mutu had become a necessity for our team and with him in the field anything becomes possible!", declared Prandelli for the Italian press.

The Italian attacker Alberto Gilardino, the author of the third goal for Fiorentina, exclaimed about Mutu's evolution: "My goal came as a crown from a big victory. Di Vaio managed to brig very good results at Bologna, but we are addicted to Mutu's goals. His results helped us very much today!"

For a month and a half, Adrian has been dreaming about reaching the edge of 100 goals. He didn't score against Sampdoria or Lecce, the game where he had the second luxation and had to miss again. Meanwhile, Mutu prepared for the day that he would score again. Yesterday, after his success at Bologna, Mutu took out his t-shirt and showed the gallery a white undershirt printed with the number 100 and one big diamond under it, as an allusion to his nickname"The Brilliant". It didn't matter that after that, the referee Orsato showed him the yellow card.
"I didn't think about the goal no 100, I just thought about playing well. I was afraid to wear that undershirt because i thought it would bring me bad luck!", Adrian Mutu.

This season, Mutu scored 10 times for Fiorentina, 8 in the championship and two in Champions League.
