Fiorentina confirmed their improved form against Milan and took the lead in the 66th minute after a corner kick and a precise header from Comuzzo. However, the “Rossoneri” were able to equalize again just before the end, this time after a smart pass by Fofana, substitute Nkunku, who returned after a short ankle injury, made his way through. At the end of the set, the home team could have taken the victory for their side with two chances in quick succession, but Brescianini only hit the crossbar and Kean was soon caught by goalkeeper Maignan in a great chance.
Fiorentina did not lose for the third round in a row and in 18th place they came close to the bars meaning a two-point rescue. The 17th-ranked Genoa, however, played one match less.
Nineteenth-placed Verona is in the same situation, losing a point to the “Violets” and today losing at home to Lazio Rome 0:1 after Nelsson’s own goal. The Romans won after four rounds and in the eighth place of the incomplete table they lose six points to the cup rungs.
