Turin managed to respond, but Jan Caramo's goal in 90+3 minutes was not decisive. With a score of 2:1, Fiorentina qualified for the semifinals of the prestigious tournament, where they will play against a surprise win over Napoli and Roma Cremonese.

Bologna did not lose three games in a row, scored two wins in this stretch, and occupied the ninth line in the Italian championship standings.
