Fiorentina Fall to Lecce as Winless Serie A Run Reaches 10, Pioli Under Pressure

Sporting director Daniele Pradè resigned Saturday, intensifying scrutiny on coach Stefano Pioli.

Overview

  • Medon Berisha volleyed the winner in a 1-0 result at the Franchi after Cher Ndour surrendered possession near midfield.
  • A second-half penalty initially awarded to Fiorentina was overturned following a VAR on-field review.
  • Fiorentina are next to last with four points from 10 matches, one point above Genoa, with seven goals scored and 15 conceded.
  • Supporters jeered the team and Pioli at full-time and later protested outside the stadium.
  • The club imposed a post-match media blackout after the defeat, a day after confirming Pradè’s departure by mutual consent.
