Viola Nation

I believe "Fiorentina" is actually Norse for "play really well until the key moments of your season"

That'll do it for me. This is Tito signing off to step outside and get some fresh air. You should do the same. I love you all.

All in all, a pretty fun game. Plenty of positives for the Viola to take away even if they couldn't hang on for the win. violanation.com/fiorentina-m…

And that's the triple blast. 2-2 in a sloppy, entertaining game. Both sides with chances to win it but couldn't quite manage. Fiorentina makes it 5 straight without defeat against the Juvenuts; the last such streak started in 1955.

Brescianini hammes a low drive that Vicario palms away and Gnonto's inches from turning home the rebound. We're not done yet.

86' Beto for Pellegrino, who's put in a huge shift. Gnonto for Njie, who's also worked his socks off.

79' João Mário might've jsut gotten away with a handball in the box there. Genuinely can't tell but looks like it really might've been.

64' Double change for the good guys: it's Brescianini and Fagioli for Pote and Oulaï. Both logical choices. Christ was on the verge of getting sent off and Pote's poor conditioning has been an open secret all year.

56' Mastantuono cuts in and fires one just wide. Great work from Ndour to set him up for that. Feels like Fiorentina might be figuring some stuff out.
