Conference League: Fiorentina almost faced comeback of the year 😱 | OneFootball

It seems that Europe is not favorable to Italian clubs.

Facing Jagiellonia Białystok in the Conference League playoffs, Fiorentina thought they were cruising towards an easy qualification after their 0-3 away victory in the first leg.

However, nothing is easy this season for the 16th in Serie A, and this was due to one man on Thursday night.

In the span of 25 minutes, Bartosz Mazurek scored a stunning hat-trick on Viola's turf (23rd, 45+3, 49th) to allow the leader of the Polish championship to equalize on aggregate (3-3) and dream of an unlikely feat.

However, the outcome proved cruel for Jagiellonia Białystok, who were crushed by a magnificent goal from Nicolo Fagioli (107th) followed by a strike from Moise Kean shortly after (115th).

After a big scare, Fiorentina advances to the next round, where they will face Strasbourg.
