Fiorentina hammer Juventus to pile more pressure on Motta | OneFootball

Fiorentina beat Juventus 3-0 at The Stadio Artemio Franchi to keep alive their hopes of a top four finish, and pile more pressure on Thiago Motta.

Scorers: Gosens 15', Mandragora 18', Guðmundsson 53'

La Viola started much the better, and had the game almost won inside 20 minutes, striking twice in the space of three minutes.

Robin Gosens got the first, smashing home from inside the box after Juve failed to deal with a corner.

The Old Lady didn't settle down, and were made to pay for it shortly after. Giving the ball away far too easily, they then allowed Fiorentina to cut through their midfield, and get the ball to Rolando Mandragora.

The midfielder stuck the ball past Michele Di Gregorio under pressure from a defender brilliantly, arrowing it into the bottom corner with his left foot.

Any hope of a comeback in the second half ended just eight minutes after the break, Albert Guðmundsson putting the seal on a fine win with a brilliant strike.

The win pushed Fiorentina into eight, just four points behind their illustrious opponents and five behind fourth place Bologna.

As for Juve, it's another harrowing loss for Motta following on from last weekend's 4-0 defeat to Atalanta, and will only increase the pressure on his position.
