THE MATCH
It took a convincing performance against him Crotone because the Fiorentina He managed to outrun the Naples coup. La Viola gets rid of the Calabrian team at home, doubled by 2-1, and climbs to twelfth place with 21 points, +7 from the relegation zone; Stroppa’s team, meanwhile, remains in last place in the standings with 12.
The game opens with a free kick from Biraghi; the latter’s left ends decidedly above the crossbar. At 20 ‘, however, here is the viola masterpiece: spectacular play on the left of Castrovilli, who jumps to Djidji with a tunnel to return and tries to get a cross into the center, which turns out badly but turns, in fact, into an assist for the stop and the perfect execution on the fly from the limit Buenaventura of the right external environment, which cancels Cordaz. Shortly after the goal of the hosts, Vlahovic He goes alone in the open field but his left-hander is countered by Marrone in a slip. In any case, the Serbian striker will find the double in the 32nd minute: everything starts again from Castrovilli, who jumped at Eduardo Henrique with a bright veil and then served from the left Ribéry, whose first intention to assist Vlahovic in the center is simply an easy-to-unwrap chocolate.
In the Franchi the intensity of the rain and the wind increases, but the pressure of Prandelli’s men does not diminish. Although the first possibility of recovery is for Crotone: a center from Pereira from the right reaches the far post, where Reca is nevertheless disturbed by the departure of his compatriot Dragowski and is limited to a dirty touch of the head. On the other hand, Cordaz is very good at repelling Vlahovic’s tight deadlift in two stages. So, at 66 ‘, he thinks about it If my to reopen the game with a crushed header at the far post in a center by Pedro Pereira from the right. However, Fiorentina is not intimidated: Ribéry claims a penalty for an alleged foul suffered by Eduardo Henrique, but it is not awarded. The shot with the right leg of the substitute Pulgar closes the challenge.
REPORT CARDS
Castrovilli 7.5 – Much of the success of Prandelli’s team is undoubtedly thanks to him: first Djidji gets drunk with a tunnel, leading to the 1-0 goal, then he opens the triangle with Ribery and Vlahovic for the double. He is the best in the field.
Bonaventure 7 – The one with which he scores his first goal with the Fiorentina shirt is an extraordinary jewel: his save and right outside midfield from the edge becomes an unstoppable parable for Cordaz.
Vlahovic 6.5 – Sixth goal in the last eight games for the Serbian forward, who will turn 21 in five games. He was completely intangible in Naples (like the rest of the team), but tonight he has returned to doing what he does best: scoring.
Simy 6.5 – After the double against Benevento, the Nigerian striker heads (in his first opportunity) the goal in the middle of the second half, ahead of Cáceres, who could reopen the game. But in the end it will turn out to be a useless target.
Lupert 6 – Very good closing the entrances of Ribéry and Vlahovic, especially in the first half hour of the first half. He’s always attentive at the rear, even on a not-so-easy day.
Zanellato 5.5 – Too ineffective in the midfield to be able to put opponents in difficulties. A too decisive intervention on Buenaventura with his feet together costs him a well-deserved yellow card. He is replaced in the final by Siligardi.
