Purple party at the end of the race (Germogli)
Florence, March 16, 2025 – Total and absolute domination: the Fiorentina annihilates Juventus playing a great match. It ends with the “torello” of the Viola to the Bianconeri and with the “Fiesole” chant to remember that “the ball is the yellow one”. In reality, Juve sees the ball for the whole match, but they can’t do anything: never a chance, a restart, a danger for De Gea.
La Juventus sinks (with his coach) on an evening dominated by the Viola who drove the fans crazy with joy and earned three important points in the fight for a European place.
It's a very beautiful Fiorentina, all to be promoted with high marks (a particular note of merit for Fagioli, Dodo, Gosens, Pongracic) apart from De Gea, almost inactive.
I start with Juve in attack, but Fiorentina is very well put on the field by Palladino. The lily team closes well, orderly and with great application. Then at 15' it strikes: corner by Cataldi from the left, rebound and great goal by Gosens. The black and white reaction is non-existent and the Viola strike with the Mandragora doubling (18') thanks to a great angled shot.
Juventus doesn't lose their composure and continues their useless possession of the ball at a slow pace, making basic mistakes. The former Viola Gonzalez (bad performance) and also Vlahovic who remains on the bench are booed.
The lilies dominate and they run riot in the second half with a precise shot by Gudmundsson for 3-0 (53'). It's incredible how the Juventus defense allows him to shoot undisturbed. The match ends here (assuming it ever started for Juve) the Viola people experience another great evening of celebration also on the occasion of the memory of Joe Barone (the Viola general manager who passed away a year ago) honored with videos and chants, but also with the shirt worn on the field by the team and which he had chosen as the fourth shirt.
