Fiorentina succumbed on Saturday at home to Torino (0-1), adding to their second straight defeat and seeing their ninth position in Serie A compromised.
Another hole from La Fiore, this time at home, in front of their fans. It has not been an easy season for the ‘viola’, very irregular since the beginning of the championship, with six wins, eight losses and five draws.
In a confrontation against a direct rival, Fiore could not control the game and found himself at the mercy of a Torino team with the greatest danger in the Senegalese Demba Seck.
The striker ran into, in fact, the crossbar and saw how VAR disallowed a goal for offside in the early stages. This is a warning of what Fiore is suffering from.
After half an hour in the game, it was Russian Aleksey Miranchuk, the key to this ‘Bull’ led by Croatian Ivan Juric, who opened the can with a left-footed shot from the front directly to the squad, final for in Italian. goalkeeper Pietro Terracciano.
Jovic missed a clear chance
La Fiore tried to the end without success. Serbian Luka Jovic, formerly of Real Madrid, had it in the 82nd minute, which after a defensive error by ‘Toro’ stood without a goalkeeper in the area, but a defender managed to snatch the ball from him at the last moment. The Serbian striker continues without giving up good minutes in Florence.
The defeat compromises Fiorentina’s ninth position, which could be accessed by Juventus (after 15 penalty points), Bologna, Empoli or Monza if they win their respective matches. Torino, for its part, is seventh with 26 points, but still eight behind Roma and the European positions.
