Pioli’s Viola remain stuck at two points after four matches, the result of draws with Cagliari and Torino and home defeats against Napoli and now Como.

The Tuscan side’s first-half goal from Mandragora wasn’t enough, as he opened the scoring and put the game on track, before the one-two from the Lombards in the second 45 minutes.

Como, on the other hand, climbs to 7 points, the result of two wins, one draw, and one defeat in the first four Serie A matches.

High tension at the Franchi tonight! After just 5 minutes, Mandragora lights up the stadium with a left-footed missile that blasts through Como’s goal.

An incredible goal that sends the 21,000 in attendance into raptures. But right after the celebrations, chaos erupts: Vojvoda loses his head and throws Dodo to the ground, earning a yellow card and sending adrenaline levels through the roof.

That wasn’t all: in the 21st minute, Pioli is already forced to make a change. Lamptey, who landed badly after an aerial challenge, raises the white flag and makes way for young Niccolò Fortini.

For the class of 2006, a product of the Viola youth academy and on loan last season at Juve Stabia in Serie B, it’s his Serie A debut.

The winger has reached a special milestone: he has become the thousandth player to wear the Fiorentina shirt in an official match.

A frantic end to the first half with VAR taking center stage. After a through ball from Nico Paz, Nicolussi Caviglia trips Perrone at the edge of the penalty area. The referee initially awards a penalty, but then it’s revoked by VAR: the contact was just outside the area.

On the resulting free kick, Nico Paz shoots into the wall and the rebound ends up behind De Gea, but the goal is disallowed for a clear offside position by Diego Carlos.

A special day for a Viola fan, Mrs. Marisa, who is at the Franchi for the first time today.

Como reacts and comes close to scoring several times, finally succeeding in the second half with Kempf’s header from a well-delivered Nico Paz free kick.

The Como defender is left unmarked by Ranieri and Gosens and beats De Gea.

In the final minutes, deep into stoppage time, Como completes the comeback, overturning the match in one half.

Jayden Addai does it all himself. The Dutch player, born in 2005, enters the box, skips past Pongracic with a sharp cut, and beats De Gea with a diagonal finish.
