“We were more practical today. I introduced Marcelo Larrondo for Stevan Jovetic because we needed different characteristics. I admit Luca Toni was offside on the second goal.” Vincenzo Montella speaks after the match Fiorentina-Chievo.

Adem Ljajic had put Fiorentina ahead in the 27th, using an angled shot to finish off a counterattack for his third goal in two matches. But it was not enough.  Bologna came back from a goal down to beat visiting Fiorentina 2-1 Tuesday in the Appenine derby, which was postponed by two days due to snow.

The woodwork gifts a cynical Roma. Praises and disappointment for Viola. In the night match of Coppa Italia, Mattia Destro gives Roma the next stage of the Italina Cup. Viola show quality football, hit the posts and leave the Coppa Italia undeservedly.

Gonzalo’s goal is not enough. Di Natale punished the Viola with a penalty first and through a second goal in the last 45. Vincenzo Montella’s men get close to grab an equaliser in several occasions, but in the end Muriel sealed the score for Udinese.

Fiorentina’s unbeaten home run came to an end on Sunday, when Pescara came away with a surprising excellent victory at the Artemio Franchi Stadium in Florence, Italy. Goals from Jonathas and Mervan Çelik gave to Pescara all three points in Serie A.

Fiorentina’s match against Siena was a one-way game. The early match at 12:30 on the 17th day of Serie A football saw the Florentines dominating play in the Tuscan derby, beating Siena 4-1. For Siena, Cosmi initially counted on Angelo’s re-entering – he was then replaced by Sestu because of an injury – on Rubin and Larrondo, who exited at half time in favor of Coppola.

Fiorentina on home soil against Atalanta BC, who had Luca Cigarini sent off in first-half stoppage time. Two goals at the end of the opening period from Alberto Aquilani contributed to a 4-1 win which moved Vincenzo Montella’s side third, a point behind Inter and five behind leaders Juventus.

A strong Fiorentina beat a slightly off-form Cagliari 4-1 to take 4th place in the championship ranking. The final result did not do the Sardinian team justice and Fiorentina has now overtaken Lazio. ”We are well aware of our ambitions,” told Vincenzo Montella.

Fifth-place Fiorentina beat struggling Genoa 1-0 on Thursday to move into contention for the Champions League places in Serie A. With 18 points, Fiorentina moved within one point of fourth-place Lazio. Defending champion Juventus leads with 28 points, followed by Inter Milan (24), Napoli (22) and Lazio (19).

In the 2012/13 Serie A, Week 8, it is played the match between Chievo and Fiorentina. A good first-half performance wasn’t enough for Fiorentina to beat a stubborn and well-drilled Chievo outfit. Corini’s side took the lead through Thereau but a minute later the Viola were back on level terms thanks to Rodriguez. Toni was denied by the post.
