Verona beat Fiorentina 2-1 and saw La Nuova Sardegna save

VERONA (ITALPRESS) – Mission accomplished at the Bentegodi for Verona, who beat Fiorentina 2-1 in front of their home crowd and won three golden points. Salvation is now one step away for the Venetians. Noslin’s fourth goal of the season was decisive and, while awaiting tomorrow’s matches, allowed the Scaligeri team to maintain a 5-point lead over Sassuolo (victorious against Inter yesterday) and Udinese (tomorrow at home against Napoli), both third to last at odds 29. On the other hand, bad stop from a European perspective for Fiorentina. The match began in a tense manner with the hosts who, in the 12th minute, took advantage of a defensive mix-up by Christensen and earned a penalty kick with Noslin. From eleven meters Lazovic crosses under seven for the goal which makes it 1-0. Fiorentina felt the pinch and three minutes later risked a double disadvantage but Bonazzoli was not very precise. In the 18th minute, Tuscan offensive jolt with the former player Barak who, with a header, forces Montipò into an instinctive intervention. Having escaped the danger, Baroni’s eleven moved their center of gravity back and, in the 29th minute, Fiorentina came close to equalizing with Castrovilli, who hit the post with a shot from the top of the area.
The missed opportunity did not demoralize the guests who before the break, in the 42nd minute, equalized the score with Castrovilli’s left-footed winner, his first goal of the season. In the second half the pace of the game leaves something to be desired but, in the 59th minute, Verona takes the lead and scores the decisive 2-1: cross by Lazovic in the Viola area and short clearance by Milenkovic. The ball reaches Noslin who unloads a missile that Christensen is unable to intervene on. With the new disadvantage, Italian opts for a series of substitutions in an attempt to give greater concreteness to his Fiorentina but Verona holds on and wins a very important victory. Bentegodi in celebration, nervousness and regret in the Viola home team.
