Fiorentina
Inter
Inter struck early through Pio Esposito's first-minute header from a Nicolò Barella cross, but Fiorentina showed tremendous resilience to fight back. The Nerazzurri appeared to be managing the game effectively in the opening hour, though the match became increasingly fractious with six yellow cards issued. The turning point came when Albert Gudmundsson's effort was saved by Yann Sommer, only for Cher Ndour to pounce on the rebound and level the score with 13 minutes remaining. This hard-fought draw maintains both sides' mid-table positions, with Fiorentina's second-half spirit earning them a valuable point against their more fancied opponents.
