Why It Matters
Fiorentina had just sacked coach Grosso and recalled Vanoli in search of a change after disappointing results.
Fiorentina found the shock they were looking for after the dismissal of Grosso and the return of Vanoli, beating Venezia 4-2 away. Much of the credit goes to Franco Mastantuono, who with a brace in the space of two minutes (29' and 30') overturned Adams' initial lead in the 22nd minute, and in the second half after Pellegrino's goal in the 66th minute he also scored a hat-trick in the 84th minute - helped by a lucky rebound from the goalkeeper's save. Hainaut's 4-2 in the 86th minute was useless.
Open Questions
- How long will the positive effect of Vanoli's return last?
- Will Mastantuono maintain this level of achievement?
