March 17, (THEWILL) – Fiorentina delivered a comprehensive 3-0 victory against Juventus on Sunday, intensifying the scrutiny on Bianconeri manager Thiago Motta following his team’s second consecutive heavy loss.
Robin Gosens opened the scoring after 15 minutes with a powerful volley past Michele Di Gregorio following a poorly defended corner.
The lead doubled just three minutes later when Juventus loanee Nicolo Fagioli provided a precise through ball to Rolando Mandragora, who finished with composure to extend the advantage for the home side.
The contest was effectively decided eight minutes after half-time when Albert Gudmundsson added a third goal for La Viola.
The sequence began with Fagioli, who orchestrated an attack down the left flank before finding Gudmundsson, who drove through the heart of the Juventus defence before finishing confidently.
This result comes immediately after Juventus suffered a 4-0 defeat to Atalanta last weekend, creating mounting pressure on Motta’s position at the Turin club.
The consecutive losses represent a significant setback for Juventus in their campaign objectives for the 2024/2025 season.
Fiorentina’s triumphant performance at Stadio Artemis Franchi showed their tactical discipline and strengthened their position in the Serie A standings while leaving questions about Juventus’s defensive stability and tactical approach under their current management.
