Fiorentina Juventus.
It's one of the culture classics.
From high profile transfers
to competing for domestic and international honors.
There's plenty of history between these two storied clubs.
In this latest chapter, however, both teams are under pressure
and in need of a pick me up.
While Fiorentina marched on to the final eight of the Conference League in midweek,
they currently sit ninth in Serie A.
For their part, Juventus are smarting after their drubbing at home by Atalanta
and need to bounce back in their quest to qualify for next term's Champions League.
At the Artemio Franchi, it is Fiorentina against Juventus.
Not a derby in the traditional sense, but it's a crunch match
and there's no love lost between the two sets of supporters.
would even be written after flash floods
on Friday put this game at risk, but it's gone ahead.
So Palladino will do battle with Thiago Motta.
Former teammates together at Genoa in 2008, 2009 under Giampiero Gasperini.
Palladino also one time Juventus man.
And he also played in the infamous season in Serie B.
And talking of Palladino, he has Mandragora back from suspension
and the midfielder takes his place alongside Juventus'
low knee, Nicolò Fagioli in the middle of the park.
Goodmanson and Moise Ken once more lead the line
with the latter out to punish his one time employers both home and away,
having netted in Turin earlier this term.
Tutti fermi così, we'll stay as we are, says Michael Fabri.
Now for Juventus, Renato Vega and Pierre Colulu come back into the rear guard
with Cambiaso and Gatti dropping to the bench.
At the other end, Colomwani leads the line once more,
meaning former Frankie favourite Dusan Blavic begins from the bench
for the 11th time since the turn of the year across all competitions.
Now there will be that minute signs for Joe Barone,
but also Riccardo Agabio amongst his other titles.
He was present of the Italian Gymnastics Association.
He passed away earlier this week.
Joe Barone's family, wife and children
also inside the ground this evening, sempre con noi, always with us.
Joe Barone, his untimely passing
just under a year ago.
Last minute huddle then from Juventus, they need their team spirit.
Need to dig deep to that.
Ordering on humiliating defeat against Atalanta last week.
Their heaviest home loss since 1967.
Fiorentina want to pile on the misery.
Give their supporters something to cheer about.
After a negative run of results on the domestic front, at least
four defeats in the past five.
Both teams lined up, ready and raring to go.
Just to put a glimpse of Nicolo Fagioli, special game for him
against his parent club.
And we're underway, meeting 172 in Serie A
between the storied outfits, an iconic fixture.
A rivalry that peaked in the 1980s.
Juventus pipping Fiorentina to the title.
On the final day of the 1982 season.
And then going on to end the decade and start the new one
by beating Fiorentina in the UEFA Cup final, 89-90.
And shortly after, Roberto Baggio making that controversial move
from Turin to Florence, angering the Fiorentina supporters
who took to the streets to protest one of several flashpoints.
And the never ending rivalry between these two clubs
and Moise Ken, Fagioli and Nicolo Gonzalez.
Ladies, a bit of business between these two clubs.
Here is Nicolo Gonzalez and the cheers and whistles
from his former supporters.
He's failed to set your inner light so far.
And he returned to his old stomping ground then.
Yet just a second league goal for Juventus.
The first fixture ended 2-2.
Moise Ken and Sutil on target for La Viola.
Terham netting twice for the Bianconeri.
One of 54 draws down through the years in Serie A
between Juventus and Fiorentina.
Lovely touch for Nicolo Gonzalez.
Now Western McKennie.
Nicolo Gonzalez.
Still. Here's Timothy Weijer.
Nicolo Fagioli is down.
Vitality's corner.
It's still there by Robyn.
Fast becoming a Frankie icon.
And should that prove to be the winner,
he will cement his name in Fiorentina folklore.
Robyn Gozans gives Fiorentina the lead in this crunch match
with their rivals, Juventus.
The archer, Robyn Gozans
arrowing in the opener.
Fabulous finish on the rebound.
The quickest to react.
Di Gregorio routed to the spot.
May have taken a touch
off Terham on its way through.
Ken jumping up.
Goodmanson. Fagioli.
Chance here for number two.
Mandrekans.
The Fiorentina supporters are in dreamland.
Not even 18 minutes gone.
They're two goals to the good.
And Juventus don't know what's hit them.
He netted a stunner midweek
and he nets another big goal.
Mandrekans.
Ken involved.
Goodmanson. Fagioli.
The Juventus low knee setting up the second.
And we could be on course for a historic night for Fiorentina
and another potential humiliation for Juventus.
Brought in by Koopmeijers.
Brought down here and off the line.
Montevega having a go.
Now McKennie.
Away from distance.
It wasn't a bad effort either from Tim Ware.
The only one who's been a goal threat really so far.
It was a Natovega strike off the line.
Natovega.
Polamwanyi. McKennie will chase.
Now Gosens.
Polamwanyi.
Here is Koopmeijers.
Fails to apply the finishing touch there.
Dodot. Plenty of options.
Dodot goes for goal.
Tried to surprise Di Gregorio.
It whistled wide at the post.
So there goes the halftime whistle.
Fiorentina in complete control here.
And this for them, the mother of all matches.
Mandragora netting the second goal for La Viola.
His second in a matter of days after netting midweek in the Conference League.
Robin Gosens getting Fiorentina off to a flyer.
Piling the pressure on Tiago Mota.
And here's Juventus side here at the Franchi.
At halftime then, it is Fiorentina 2, Juventus 0.
And we are back underway.
No changes from either side at the break.
David De Gea, very little to do in the first 45 minutes
compared to last week at the Maradona when he was peppered with
shot after shot.
He very much did keep Fiorentina in that game,
even though he was at fault for the opener by Lukaku.
Kalulu sweeps it upfield.
Pablo Mari was on a yellow card.
Locatelli, meanwhile, for the Bianconeri on a booking.
No confirmation of Fiorentina's 3-5-2.
McKennie, Taram, now Coatminers.
Way up, Nico Gonzalez.
McKennie might fall for Colomwani.
Doesn't quite fall and the referee then gets in the way.
But I've got a straight at Michael Fabri.
Coatminers.
McKennie jumps up and that straight at De Gea from Renato Vega.
Too simple for the Spanish keeper.
De Gea, route one star for Moisa Ken.
Ken to make it three.
Just spiraled wide from Moisa Ken.
Thumbs up.
Maggiore, Goodmanson, space opening up here for Goodmanson.
It's a delicious finish.
And the scoring streak goes on for Albert Goodmanson.
Third game in a row on target across all competitions.
But this will be extra sweet against Juventus at the Franchi.
And there can't be any way back now for Juventus.
What a night for Fiorentina.
And there's still more than 30 minutes to go.
The space opened up for Albert Goodmanson
and he picked out the bottom corner.
Nothing Di Gregorio could do.
And he has turned the corner in recent weeks, Albert Goodmanson.
And he's starting to endear himself to the Fiorentina faithful.
And a goal against Juventus certainly won't harm his cause.
Ken. Ken's through here.
It must be number four for Moisa Ken.
He nets home and away.
Or does he?
Against the club, we first burst onto the scene.
The referee with the arm outstretched.
You can see Ken, it started in an offside position.
Turam. Tim Weah.
He's headed wide.
Colomani doing his very best trying to inspire a comeback here.
Cambiazzo, nice football.
Cambiazzo driving forward.
Kurt Meiners comes off Gossens.
Gossens looking to play his part at both ends of the pitch tonight.
But Meiners with that ball across and Gossens just getting in the way.
Kicking away from the on watching Colomani.
Killed in by Kurt Meiners.
De Gea gets a glove to it.
Colomani, Cambiazzo, Colomani.
Fiorentina smartly, just let that run.
Andragora for Moisa Ken.
Goes wide.
Wants to sound in, switches the play.
Cambiazzo. Turam has found a pocket of space.
Turam, curling effort straight at De Gea.
Far too central, far too tame.
McKennie.
Cambiazzo, beyond Dodot.
Still with Cambiazzo, just trying to power his way through.
Dodot, just lunging in there.
Andragora loses out.
We're playing on.
Colomani now, shaping up to shoot.
It's blocked.
Nice touch off of Viola jersey and Fiorentina feel that Andragora was fouled in the build up.
Fabio had a really good view of it and he told the players to keep on playing on.
Cambiazzo just trying to muscle his way through there.
Dodot, rugby style there.
Six Nations, which was in action also this weekend.
Two bruising defeats in as many weeks for Juventus.
Moisa Ken and company topple the Bianconeri.
Mandragora, Goodmanson and Robin Gosens do the damage.
Fiorentina return to winning ways after losing four of their previous five.
All talk of the title has been banished for Juventus.
They have now slipped out of the top four.
They find themselves in fifth spot.
And now Juventus have a job just to get back
on course to qualify for the Champions League.
The night belongs to Fiorentina.
Great week at home and abroad for La Viola.
Final score here, Fiorentina three, Juventus nil
with the pressure piling up on Tiago Mota.
