With ten men, it was Fiorentina that took the lead again in the second half. After his free kick initially ended up in the wall, Cristiano Biraghi’s second attempt was successful.
Napoli then went full on attack in pursuit of the equalizer. Former PSV player Hirving Lozano was closest with a shot that hit the post. However, the Mexican did his team a disservice ten minutes before the end. After a hard tackle, he was immediately shown red on a VAR request.

Napoli was then no longer able to force anything. But even with nine men (after a second yellow card for Fabián Ruiz), the Southern Italians managed to score the equalizer in the 95th minute, via Andrea Petagna.
In extra time, Fiorentina made the most of the surplus situation by easily running out to 5-2 after goals from Lorenzo Venuti, Krzystof Piatek and Youssef Maleh.
