Fiorentina continued their remarkable Serie A run, securing an eighth consecutive victory against Cagliari in a match filled with emotional significance. The win, their best streak since 1960, was highlighted by Danilo Cataldi’s powerful goal and a heartfelt tribute to teammate Edoardo Bove.
The match began with intense exchanges, as Riccardo Sottil tested the goalkeeper from distance while Roberto Piccoli forced a challenging save from David De Gea. The breakthrough came through Lucas Beltran, who skillfully laid the ball off for Cataldi to sweep a stunning shot into the top corner.
In a touching moment, Cataldi rushed to the television camera to send a message to Bove, who was recovering in hospital following his recent medical emergency during the abandoned Inter match, declaring “I told you!”
Jonathan Ikone twice tested Alen Sherri with sharp attempts, while Cagliari fought desperately for an equalizer. Gianluca Gaetano missed a crucial opportunity, nodding Tommaso Augello’s cross over the bar, and Robin Gosens narrowly failed to seal the victory with a late header.
