  "account": "Como returned to winning ways in Serie A on Sunday, ending a four-match winless streak with a 3-1 victory over lowly Fiorentina. Mattia Liberali and Nico Paz scored first-half goals, putting the hosts in control. Marin Pongracic then halved the deficit just before halftime. Anastasios Douvikas added a third goal early in the second half to keep Fiorentina in the relegation zone on four points. This marked Como's first win in four matches across all competitions since mid-September. Following a strong start, Como's momentum slowed with a 2-0 loss to Frosinone and a goalless draw at Roma. 19-year-old Liberali broke the poor run just after the half-hour, scoring a beautiful left-footed finish. Argentina international Paz doubled Como's lead four minutes later. Pongracic scored the equalizer in the 42nd minute, but David de Gea's mistake allowed Douvikas to capitalize and seal the victory for Como.",
