He could put land in the middle of the edge of the first half with the goal of defender Mancini, but the referee invalidated the goal for offside.

In the second half Fiorentina recovered and managed to tie (1-1) in 53 'with the header of defender Milenkovic, who took advantage of a magnificent corner corner. It was the first arrival of the viola, since in the first half he could not even approach the area of ​​the Spanish goalkeeper Pau López.

L
to Rome he did not lower his arms at all and re-imposed his football on the grass. Henrikh Mkhitaryan had a very clear double chance, first with a very strong shot that Terracciano cleared, and act and followed with a lash that crashed into the post. It was not until 87 'when Roma certified their victory after the goal of Veretout, great protagonist of the night.
