Sassuolo win the Serie A Week 27 game defeating Fiorentina on Saturday 26 February 2022 at the Mapei Stadium in Sassuolo, Italy.   A superb victory for Sassuolo grabbing the winning goal in the 94th minute.  Sassuolo have lost only one of their last eight Serie A matches against Fiorentina (1-2 in October 2019) – for the neroverdi four wins and three draws complete the set.

Sassuolo opened the score in the 19th minute. Hamed Traorè defeated Fiorentina goalkeeper Bartlomiej Dragowski with a right-footed shot to the bottom right corner.

🟨 In the 68th minute,  Referee Alessandro Prontera gave a yellow card to Fiorentina Coach Vincenzo Italiano for too many protests.

Fiorentina down to 10 players since the 79th minute. Giacomo Bonaventura got a red card following a handball then shown a second yellow for protesting.

Fiorentina equalized in the 89th minute for the 1-1. It is Arthur Cabral to defeat Sassuolo goalkeeper Andrea Consigli from very close range with a left-footed shot to the bottom right corner. The assist is by Riccardo Saponara.

What a thriller! Gregoire Defrel scored the winning goal in the 94th minute from very close range with a headed shot to the bottom left corner. Assisted by Domenico Berardi.

  Stats before the game.  After the 2-2 in the first leg, Sassuolo and Fiorentina could draw two consecutive matches for the first time in the top flight – more generally they do not repeat the same result for two straight matches in the competition since 2016 (two Viola wins in that ‘occasion). With a 2-0 win over Inter Milan in the last round of the championship, Sassuolo interrupted a streak of 19 games without keeping a clean sheet in Serie A – the neroverdi have not recorded two clean sheets in a row in the competition since December 2020 (v Roma and Benevento).  Sassuolo have not won in four Serie A home games (2N, 2P): the green-and-blacks have not reached five straight matches at the Mapei Stadium without success in the competition since December 2018 (seven on that occasion).  Fiorentina have scored 42 points in this championship, already two more than those obtained at the end of last Serie A (40) – the Viola are also only three goals away (currently 44 goals) from equaling the scoring tally recorded in the Serie A whole Serie A 2020/21 (47).
