Fiorentina returns to success after three home defeats and relaunches its high ranking ambitions with a European flavor. Just a Gosens network at the dawn of the challenge against a Lecce at the second stop in a row to find the victory and strengthen the bench of Raffaele Palladino, who on the eve had however received his certificate of trust from President Viola Rocco Commisso. Not a sparkling test for Ranieri and his companions but enough to live the expectation of the return to the Conference League with greater serenity.
For guests other gray test and little serenity compared to rivals for salvation in view of the weekend. The hosts, on the pitch with the 3-5-2 and the Zaniolo-Beltran couple in attack, immediately take the lead. Already in the 9 ‘in fact, a cross from the right of Dodo’ finds the other exterior Gosens ready to detach up and anticipate Guilbert. The lilies put the game downhill but do not close it and with the passing of the minutes the Lecce finds some courage. On the notebook, however, the only Karlsson finds space that in 42 ‘does not take advantage of an assist with a rebound among the viola defenders, with De Gea reactive to bar the road in the corner.
Palladino focuses on the density in midfield, Giampaolo, without Pierotti, focuses on Krstovic’s tonnage as a central tip. The debuts from the 1st of Pablo Marì and Ndour who next Thursday will skip the cup match against Panathinaikos on Thursday because it is excluded from the UEFA list, but it is Dodo ‘to steal the scene on the right and it is no coincidence that Gallo often goes in difficulty. Shortly after the game time Giampaolo operates three changes simultaneously by inserting above all Rebic, a former non -regret in Florence.
It is Fiorentina, however, that could close the game 17 ‘from the end when Beltren kicks a penalty for Pierret’s hand foul but the Argentine conclusion is printed on the pole. In the end other wood for the lilies centered by Mandragora, then on the following counterattack the newly entered Danilo Veiga wasted in front of De Gea. The Franchi, which also sees in the recovery Gudmundsson make mistakes two sensational networks, can still exult to the final triple whistle.
