Bologna stops Fiorentina’s run, Odgaard decides

BOLOGNA (ITALPRESS) – The derby of the Apennines belongs to Bologna. At the end of a hard-fought game, the Rossoblù snatch the three points from a Fiorentina side, back from seven straight wins, that looked tired. The former Italian adapted Holm to left-back, gave confidence to Dominguez and Castro led the attack. For Palladino (who did not go on the bench because of the loss of his mother, in his place deputy Citterio) one surprise, there is Gudmundsson in place of Sottil. Ready to go and Beltran fails to find impact on Kean’s cross (5′). Soon after Dominguez and Pobega fail to hit the mirror. In the 11th minute Adli’s assist for Gudmundsson is perfect, Skorupski is super. A dogged counterattack by the Felsinians shortly after the quarter-hour mark, Castro fails to control the force. On 19′ it’s Kean who puts it in on Cataldi’s assist but the national team striker is offside. After the half-hour mark the two teams stretch out. Odgaard sends high (36′), Pobega risks his second caution then Ndoye is injured in a clash with Gosens. The Bologna man will come out at halftime. Cataldi engages the opponent’s goalkeeper (43′) then, at 44′, Kean goes header on the development of a corner, excellent response from Skorupski. In the second half 14 seconds in and a Castro right-footed shot hits the post with De Gea beaten. Pobega engages the purple goalkeeper (5′), the pace picks up. On 10′ Odgaard shoots powerfully, De Gea puts in a corner. Beltran wastes (11′) then Sottil enters and, at 14′, Castro is perfect for Dominguez, crosses for Odgaard who, with his right, puts it in. At 18′ Castro again, this time for Holm, who sensationally wastes. Odgaard (22′) sows panic in the opponent’s box, Ranieri closes it down in extremis. Fiorentina all on the attack, looking for the equalizing goal and at 34′ Skorupski saves on the line. Final Viola scramble but the result does not change.
