Fiorentina delivered a commanding 3-0 victory over Inter in the rescheduled 14th-round Serie A match, which was originally halted on December 1st due to Edoardo Bove’s on-field collapse. Restarting from the 17th minute with a throw-in favoring the Viola, Vincenzo Italiano’s side took control in the second half, securing three crucial points in their Champions League pursuit.
The first half remained balanced, with few goal-scoring chances and an Inter side struggling to dictate play. The breakthrough came in the 59th minute when Luca Ranieri capitalized on a corner kick, heading past Sommer to put Fiorentina ahead. The goal sparked a wave of momentum for the home side, which doubled their lead in the 68th minute through Moise Kean. The Italian striker, brilliantly assisted by Nico Gonzalez, smashed a powerful right-footed shot into the net from inside the box.
Inter attempted a response through Lautaro Martinez and Thuram, but failed to create clear-cut opportunities. In the dying moments, Kean sealed the victory with his second goal in the 89th minute, pouncing on a poor clearance by Dumfries to slot home and secure the 3-0 scoreline.
With this result, Fiorentina moves up to fourth place, overtaking Bologna and Roma in the race for a Champions League spot. Inter, meanwhile, remains three points behind Napoli, squandering a key opportunity to level with the league leaders.
Next up, the Nerazzurri will look to bounce back at home against Torino, while Fiorentina will aim to continue their form in an away fixture against Sassuolo.
