Fiorentina’s centenary spoilt by Frosinone humbling
Fiorentina's celebrations of the club's 100th anniversary were spoilt by a 3-0 home defeat by promoted Frosinone.
Fiorentina's centenary celebrations were marred by a 3-0 home loss to promoted Frosinone, marking the Viola's second consecutive heavy defeat to start the Serie A season. Club legends Gabriel Batistuta and Claudio Ranieri attended, but their efforts were in vain as Fiorentina struggled to recover from their 4-0 defeat at Roma in their opener.
Antonio Raimondo scored twice for Frosinone, while Gabriele Bracaglia added another goal. Last season, Fiorentina narrowly avoided relegation, finishing 15th. New coach Fabio Grosso, a former Italian World Cup winner, took over in June and made several signings including Christ Inao Oulai, Arthur Atta, and Mateo Pellegrino. Despite these changes, the club has failed to improve, starting the season at the bottom of the table.
Later on Saturday, Juventus aimed to continue AC Milan's successful start by aiming for two wins in two matches as they take on Parma.
