Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. US Sassuolo Calcio kicks off things out of here…
- 5' Matheus Henrique has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 34 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
- 9' Andrea Pinamonti doubles the advantage! 1-0 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
- 14' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 19' It looks like no one’s ball. ACF Fiorentina is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 24' Kristian Thorstvedt needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 1 Red cards this season.
- 29' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Alessio Dionisi will be considering his options from the bench.
- 34' That is a Yellow card for US Sassuolo Calcio. Matheus Henrique will be fuming at that decision.
- 35' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Lucas Martinez Quarta.
- 40' It’s high time Vincenzo Italiano made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 45' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 48' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Kristian Thorstvedt makes it 2-0.
- 52' US Sassuolo Calcio receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 52.
- 52' ACF Fiorentina manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Lucas Beltran is hanging Arthur on the field on 52 minute.
- 57' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Josip Brekalo suffering a number of foals already.
- 62' Pietro Terracciano has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 66' GOAL! Lucas Martinez Quarta fires home to make it 2-1!

- 74' Fabiano Parisi gets the nod from ACF Fiorentina. He replaces Josip Brekalo and will look to change the dynamic.
- 76' US Sassuolo Calcio ring the changes. Armand Lauriente has done his job and it is now time for Ruan to step up.
- 80' A tactical swap from ACF Fiorentina — Antonin Barak on, Giacomo Bonaventura off on 80 minutes.
- 81' Domenico Berardi makes way for Nedim Bajrami at the 81 minute mark. A tactical switch from US Sassuolo Calcio.
- 85' The US Sassuolo Calcio bench stirs into life. Jeremy Toljan is withdrawn and Filippo Missori gets his opportunity.
- 86' The whistle greets Andrea Pinamonti as he departs to be replaced by Samuele Mulattieri.
- 90' Jonathan Ikone is having his name booked by the referee on 90.
- The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for ACF Fiorentina.
