Serie A | Fiorentina 1-1 Napoli: Honours even as deflected Jimenez shot cancels out Gilmour opener

In a Serie A match between Fiorentina and Napoli at Stadio Artemio Franchi, the game ended in a 1-1 draw. The score was evened when Fiorentina's Alejandro Jimenez Sanchez, known as Alex, scored a goal in the 51st minute. His shot was deflected by Rafa Marin before it crossed the goal line, cancelling out Napoli's opener.

The match saw numerous close calls, with De Gea and Milinkovic-Savic each making crucial saves. The woodwork also intervened three times inside half an hour, with Fiorentina's Arthur Atta clipping the crossbar and Nicolo Fagioli's effort hitting the post. Despite Fiorentina dominating the opening twenty minutes, Napoli equalized immediately after the restart. Matteo Politano's cross found Mathias Olivera, whose diving header hit the upright before De Gea tipped the follow-up over.

Billy Gilmour, making his Serie A debut since September 2025, scored Fiorentina's goal. He arrived unmarked after Politano's delivery from the left, guiding a volley into the bottom corner. Gilmour's teammates, including his assistant Marco Landucci, credited him for the goal, which came from a training-ground routine.
