📸 Fiorentina stunned: comeback conceded, extra-time drama for the last 16 | OneFootball

An ugly, or rather unrecognizable, Fiorentina squanders the small treasure built up in Poland seven days ago, but in extra time finds the decisive strike that secures a ticket to the Round of 16 of the Conference League.

Too many individual errors — Lezzerini, Pongracic, Comuzzo above all — shape the match: at halftime it's 0-2. In the second half, Vanoli changes the goalkeeper, taking off Lezzerini (also due to physical problems that emerged in the meantime), but Fiorentina immediately concedes the 0-3 as well. Fun fact: all three goals were scored by Mazurek, born in 2007, who thus becomes the first player born in his year to score a hat-trick in a UEFA competition.

Fiorentina tries to get back into the game in the 90 minutes, but the reaction is sterile, almost non-existent, and the match sensationally slips into extra time. It's there, in the last fifteen minutes, that everything is decided.

Harrison crosses from the right, Abramowicz messes up the clearance and parries short: Fagioli's right-footed shot goes over him. Shortly after, from the corner, comes the definitive comeback: Kean shoots, Fabbian deflects from close range and makes it 2-3. In the 118th minute, Imaz reopens everything: a long-range shot, a deceptive bounce, and De Gea is caught off guard. It's 2-4, a fiery finale but one that still gives Fiorentina what seemed like a certain qualification to the Round of 16 just seven days ago. Only applause for Jagiellonia.

✅ FIORENTINA IN THE ROUND OF 16: WILL LEARN THEIR OPPONENT TOMORROW

Fiery finale, but Fiorentina secures qualification to the Round of 16: now they will face either Strasbourg or Rakow. Tomorrow, from 1:00 PM, the draw.

⚽⚽ FAGIOLI+FABBIAN, DE GEA BLUNDERS: EVERYTHING HAPPENS

EXTRA TIME – First Fagioli, then Fabbian score two golden goals and finally put Fiorentina's qualification to the Round of 16 on ice.

Harrison sends it in from the right, Abramowicz comes out poorly and parries short: the ball stays there and the midfielder unleashes a right-footed shot that goes over him. 

Soon after, the definitive comeback is born from the corner: Kean shoots powerfully towards the Polish goal, but the decisive deflection is from Fabbian, who finishes from close range and makes it 2-3. In seven minutes, Fiorentina regains qualification.

In the 118th minute, Imaz reignites everything: a right-footed shot from distance, far from unstoppable, the ball bounces in front of De Gea who is caught off guard. It's 2-4, the match is wide open again. It's not over yet.

🚑 SOLOMON GETS INJURED: FORCED SUBSTITUTION

99' – Unlucky evening for Solomon: brought on in the 62nd minute, he's forced to throw in the towel after picking up a problem while trying to spread the play to Dodò. Gudmundsson comes on in his place.

🍿 FIORENTINA-JAGIELLONIA DECIDED IN EXTRA TIME

Kean, in the 94th minute, has a real match point but blasts it into the stands with his right foot. The clash between Fiorentina and Jagiellonia continues — sensationally — into extra time.

⚽ SHOCK: MAZUREK SCORES A HAT-TRICK, IT'S ALL SQUARE

50' - Mazurek sends a chill through the Franchi: the 2007-born player completes a sensational hat-trick and brings the score to 0-3. A result that resets everything and opens the door to extra time.

Fiorentina protests for a foul on Piccoli at the start of the play, but Pululu finds his teammate at the far post, free to control the ball and beat De Gea. For Vanoli's team, it's back to square one.

RANDOM STATS: Tonight Mazurek became the first player born from 1/01/2007 onwards to score at least 3 goals in a match valid for UEFA European competitions [Opta].

😲 VANOLI DROPS LEZZERINI: DE GEA COMES ON

Not perfect on the two goals conceded, Vanoli leaves Lezzerini in the dressing room: in his place, the undisputed starter De Gea. Change also for Fortini, who makes way for Harrison.

⚽⚽ MAZUREK SCORES TWO: SHOCK IN FLORENCE

23' and 45' - The Poles end the first half with an excellent Mazurek who scores twice and sensationally puts his team back in the game.

Midway through the first half, Pululu shields the ball and sets up the 2007-born player, who enters the box. The Viola goalkeeper saves the first attempt, but on the rebound the young midfielder is the quickest and puts the ball in the net.

Almost at the end of the 45', Mazurek with a deflection beats Lezzerini again and not only gets his personal brace, but completely reopens the contest: now the aggregate score is 3-2 for Fiorentina.

🗣 VANOLI: "EVERY MATCH TEACHES US SOMETHING"

Vanoli speaks to the microphones of Sky Sport: "We saw in the Champions League the comebacks that have happened. Every match teaches us something, we will have to be good at going on the pitch to win without conceding goals and maybe saving energy. Substitutes will also be important, let's remember the importance of the league. The team's growth? In the last few matches we've done very well with the different distances and high speed of our defenders: it means we've been more attentive in preventive marking when attacking and on opponents' counterattacks. The problem was managing to get rid of the thought of 'I'll win the next one': the boys did well, because we faced teams that know what it means to be at the bottom of the table and fight for survival from the start"
