Fiorentina staged a resilient comeback to defeat Cagliari 2–1 at the Unipol Domus, keeping their European qualification hopes alive.
The match, rescheduled following the passing of Pope Francis, saw Cagliari take an early lead due to a misjudged clearance by Fiorentina’s goalkeeper David de Gea, allowing Roberto Piccoli to score. Despite the absence of their top scorer Moise Kean, Fiorentina responded with determination. Robin Gosens equalized before halftime, and Lucas Beltrán secured the victory with a decisive header early in the second half.
This victory propels Fiorentina closer to the Serie A top four, intensifying the competition for Champions League qualification. Meanwhile, Cagliari remains just above the relegation zone, facing a challenging battle to maintain their top-flight status.
