Fiorentina-Roma 1-4, Dzeko, Kolarov, Pellegrini and Zaniolo consolidate 4th place

Fonseca finds Smalling, Montella with Vlahovic from 1 '

For the occasion, Fonseca has proposed the central pair with the restored Smalling next to Mancini, returning after the disqualification round. On the right he gave space to Florenzi preferring him to Spinazzola. On the opposite side Montella, without Ribery, also without the injured Church, launched in front from 1 'Vlahovic, hero of the match against Inter, alongside Boateng and midfield confirmed Badelj given the precarious conditions of Benassi.

Deadly one-two by Dzeko-Kolarov

Fiorentina got off to a good start and immediately frightened Lopez: Vlahovic sent a free-kick from the edge of the box and then kicked the goalkeeper on a post by Pulgar. At 14 'the viola have also scored with a precise left diagonal of the same Serbian but Orsato has rightly canceled for the attacker's clear offside. Roma, sly, struggled to fuel but when he changed gears he scored two goals in 3 minutes. The 0-1 (18 ') was born from a brilliant intuition of pilgrims who attracted 4 purple players and then marked the area on the right Zaniolo who with a perfect assist of counterbalance allowed Dzeko to bag from a few steps. On the wings of enthusiasm, Fonseca's men insisted and, in the 21st minute, doubled with a masterful free-kick from the edge of Kolarov who slipped the crossroads with his relentless left round.

Badelj deludes Fiorentina

Fiorentina did not knock down and, in the 34th minute, returned to the game with Badelj, who was quick to take advantage of a loose ball in the area after a shot by Caceres re-shot by Veretout. Just in the psychologically most difficult moment Roma proved to be more team, not offering any chance to the opponents anymore. Fiorentina has generously tried to find the way of the draw but the right flicker to serve Vlahovic with the right times or take advantage of Castrovilli's insertions has been missing.

Pellegrini and Zaniolo close the accounts

Roma thus controlled and, at 73 ', definitively closed the accounts thanks to another intuition by Pellegrini who triangulated to the limit with Dzeko and beat Dragowski with a precise right-footed shot. Fiorentina took the hit and, in the 88th minute, also took the 1-4 from Zaniolo, launched on the counterattack by Dzeko. Only in the final the Viola, also thanks to the changes, had a leap of pride going close to 2-4 with Vlahovic (cross on a free kick) and twice with Sottil. We will have to see if it will be enough to allow Montella to eat the panettone.
