Juventus Suffers Another Heavy Defeat Against Fiorentina

Juventus endured a second consecutive heavy loss in Serie A, falling 3-0 to Fiorentina after last week 4-0 defeat to Atalanta. Goals from Robin Gosens, Rolando Mandragora, and Albert Gudmundsson sealed Fiorentina dominant win. Juventus has now lost back-to-back league games by three or more goals for only the third time in their history.

In the latest Serie A clash, Fiorentina handed Juventus a crushing 3-0 defeat at Stadio Artemio Franchi, marking Juve’s second consecutive heavy loss after a 4-0 setback against Atalanta. Robin Gosens opened the scoring in the 15th minute, capitalizing on a defensive lapse. Just three minutes later, Rolando Mandragora doubled the lead after a brilliant assist from Juventus loanee Nicolo Fagioli. Fiorentina sealed the win early in the second half, with Albert Gudmundsson finishing a swift counterattack led by Fagioli.

This defeat made history, as Juventus lost back-to-back Serie A games by three or more goals for only the third time, previously occurring in 2011 and 1957. Fiorentina also set a record by scoring at least three goals against both Juventus and Inter Milan in the same Serie A season for the first time. Additionally, La Viola now leads Serie A in goals scored within the first 15 minutes, tallying eight this season.

With Juventus struggling for form and confidence, pressure mounts on coach Thiago Motta. However, club officials insist his position remains secure. Meanwhile, Fiorentina continues their impressive campaign, strengthening their bid for European qualification.
