Fiorentinaās nightmare knows no borders and extends to the Conference League as well. Paolo Vanoliās team is trailing in the last match of the League Phase against Lausanne with a score of 1-0.
This result, in addition to further worsening the mood of the team currently bottom of the Serie A standings, would condemn the Viola to play the playoffs. Two extra matches that can only weigh negatively on the overall season tally.
š¶āš«ļø Awful first half, fog the only protagonist
Fiorentina confirms its nightmare spell even in the first half of the Conference League match. Just 4 shots, none of which were on target, against Lausanne.
The xG stat is alarming, stuck at 0.10. The Swiss side didnāt create much either, but were more dangerous. The real protagonist of these rather lackluster 45 minutes was the fog. Extremely thick. The referee even suspended the match for a few dozen seconds due to poor visibility, but then decided to continue.
š± Fiorentina IN SHAMBLES! 1-0 Lausanne
In the 59th minute, the situation goes from bad to sportingly dramatic due to Lausanneās lead.
Kana-Biyik breaks through on the left, dazzling Nicolussi Caviglia with feints, crosses to the far post where Fortini is clearly late, and Sigua heads it in to punish a hesitant Martinelli. Itās a dark night for the Viola, who are reeling badly and seem to struggle every time their opponents get into the final 30 meters.
