The Biancocelesti created several chances, but found a superb De Gea in their way: decisive from the opening minutes, with a stunning save on Zaccagni that immediately set the tone for the match.

In terms of xG and chances, Lazio had 6 shots and produced 1.42 xG, compared to Fiorentina’s 0.50. But what decided it was Gosens’ first-half header, from right to left: Harrison with the cross, the German with the header.

Midway through the second half, the Mandragora-Noslin contact could have changed everything. Fabbri first blew for simulation and then, after being called by VAR, confirmed the decision without awarding a penalty.

🔚 Fiorentina take an important step toward safety, Lazio stuck on 44 pts

Clinical as ever, La Viola made it five straight positive results and moved up to 35 points, 8 more than 18th place occupied by the Cremonese-Lecce duo. Lazio, meanwhile, lose in the league for the first time in almost a month and a half: their last defeat was on March 1 in Turin against Torino.

🙄 VAR calls Fabbri over, but he doesn’t change his mind!

MINUTE 65 - A controversial moment at the Franchi: contact in the box between Mandragora and Noslin, with Fabbri initially booking the Biancocelesti forward for simulation.

VAR called the referee over for a possible review, but after the on-field review the decision stood: no penalty for Lazio and Noslin’s yellow card was confirmed. A brave call by Fabbri: usually, after a video review, the referee changes his mind — not in this case. The decision, as confirmed by Luca Marelli - DAZN’s refereeing expert - appears to be the correct one.

MINUTE 28 - Harrison swings it in, Gosens gets the better of Lazzari and scores with his trademark move: a header. Motta can’t reach it and Fiorentina take the lead, which proves decisive by the final whistle.

😱 De Gea miracle save on Zaccagni’s shot!

MINUTE 3 - De Gea is in the spotlight right away, saving Fiorentina with a sensational stop: Zaccagni takes advantage of a Viola defense that is too stretched and finds himself one-on-one with the goalkeeper, striking with the inside of his right foot. But the keeper stays on his feet until the very end and closes down the angle with a decisive save.
