League
Fiorentina was ahead in the score at the end of the 90th minute, but Lecce turned the score upside down in stoppage time and with two goals celebrated a great success in the struggle for survival.
Incredible, unimaginable, shocking! Fiorentina were 2-1 up in the 90th minute and held the three points in their hands which would have taken them to fourth place and given them great confidence in the battle for the Champions League, but the final at the Via del Mare found it difficult. Great victor in… Lecce.
This is because the Puglia team did not give up the match and by scoring two goals, in the 90th and 90th + 2 minutes, it made a major transformation, defeating the Viola and achieving a very important victory for them in their attempt to remain in the Italian League.
The opening match of Matchday 23 was an exciting one, with Lecce more dangerous in the first half (8-2 final, 3-0 home) and taking the lead in the 17th minute through Oden but Fiorentina responded impressively in the second half. Madragora and Beltran scored the surprise goals in less than 20 minutes.
With the Viola leading 2-1 until the 90th minute, everything looked bleak for Lecce, but somewhere in there a mini football miracle happened: Piccoli headed in 2-2 in the 90th minute and Dorgo in the 90th+ 2. He made it 3-2. With a shot from his left foot, he gave their team victory and forced the Tuscans to a third defeat in the last four matches.
