It was an enthralling match and a shame that one team had to lose but that's football for you. The Viola pick up a massive three points this afternoon to distance themselves from AC Milan for the last Champions League qualification spot.
90'+4 Yellow/Red Osvaldo P.
90'+3 Goal Osvaldo P.
90'+3 Goal!!!! Can you believe it?? Papa Waigo sends in a dangerous cross that Osvaldo gets onto the end of and heads past a helpless Buffon!!! Fiorentina pick up a last gasp winner in Turin!!!

90'+1 The fourth official indicates that there will be four minutes of extra time as Iaquinta tries to win a last second penalty but Farina wisely keeps the whistle in his pocket as Gamberini made a good tackle.
89' Iaquinta is caught offside as he looks for a last gasp effort to win his team all three points. Molinaro hoists a cross into the area that Gamberini heads out. Palladino makes a run down the left flank but his cross for Iaquinta is out of his reach.
87' Palladino finds Zebina who cuts inside and then flops to the ground looking for the free kick but Farina is having none of it and waves the play on much to the chagrin of the Bianconeri faithful.

85' Yellow Card Osvaldo P.
83' Molinaro gives the ball away to Donadel whose pass intended for Papa Waigo is intercepted by Grygera. Fiorentina have ten men behind the ball as they soak up some pressure from Juventus.
81' Montolivo does well to intercept a wayward pass and sends a ball upfield to Osvaldo who is caught offside once again. Ranieri might want to rethink his decision to employ three holding midfielders in the second half as now his team needs a goal to take all three points out of this match.
78' Oh!!!! Juventus win a free kick 25 yards away from Frey's goal and Iaquinta sends in a low drive that whizzes inches past the far post!!! That was close!! Papa Waigo wins his team a corner kick and Kuzmanovic's delivery is missed by everybody.

70' Oh!!! Great play by Buffon as he tips Kuzmanovic's cross out for a corner kick. Kuzmanovic's delivery is headed out by Sissoko who has had a very good match this afternoon. Jorgenson finds some space on the right flank but his cross is poor and runs out of play.

50' Del Piero and Camoranesi try to link up but Montolivo intercepts and heads upfield and finds Pazzini who wins his side a corner kick. Santana takes it short and it comes to nothing.
48' Trezeguet is caught offside and has been largely ineffective in the first forty-five minutes. Gamberini takes down Del Piero who stays down injured and this is not a good sight for Juventus fans. Gamberini caught the Juventus captain with an accidental elbow which has bloodied his forehead. He looks like he will be able to continue.
46' The second half is underway in Turin with the three points still very much up for grabs this afternoon. Neither manager has made a change at the break.
45' Farinia ends the first half festivities as both teams head into the interval all notched up at a goal apiece. It was a first half dominated by Fiorentina during long stretches and they were rewarded with a goal by Gobbi in the 19th minute. Juventus were on the back foot and almost conceded another goal but a mistake by Frey was pounced on by Sissoko whose bicycle kick in the 29th minute brought the game back onto level terms and that's where we stand now.
44' Good work by Santana who has run circles around Molinaro tonight and the Juve defender has no choice but to take him down. Kuzmanovic's delivery is to the back post looking for Gamberini who is called for a push in the area.
42' Both teams look tentative at the moment as neither side want to make a mistake in the final five minutes of the first half. Zebina plays a ball over the top of the Fiorentina defence that runs straight into the arms of Frey.
40' Gobbi finds Jorgenson whose first touch lets him down and the ball runs out of play. Camoranesi runs at the Fiorentina defence and finds Del Piero who shows too much of the ball to Ujfalusi and the chance goes begging.
37' Zebina runs over Gobbi and concedes the free kick and has some choice words for Farina in the process. Del Piero takes on Donadel on the left flank and is brought down and wins a free kick. Del Piero's delivery is cut out by Kuzmanovic who concedes a corner kick.
35' Juventus win a corner and Camoranesi's delivery falls to Legrotagglie at the far post and his header is saved comfortably by Frey. Sloppy play by both teams as they take turns giving the ball away in the midfield.
33' Ujfalusi lofts in a ball looking for Pazzini who takes it down on his chest but Legrottaglie makes a nice defensive play and snuffs out the danger. Kuzmanovic dials up a long distance effort that Grygera blocks.
31' The Bianconeri faithful are in full voice right now as they celebrate Sissoko's goal which came against the run of play. Fiorentina push forward and win a corner kick for their efforts. Santana takes it short to Jorgenson who wins another corner. Santana takes it short again but it comes to nothing.
29' Goal!!!! We are on level terms once again as Sissoko scores a wonderful overhead kick that beats a helpless Frey!!! What a fantastic goal by Sissoko who pounced on a poor punch by Frey with an acrobatic finish!!!
29' Goal Sissoko M.
27' Donadel does well in the midfield to intercept a wayward pass by Sissoko as the Bianconeri can't get anything going right now. Oh!! Montolivo sends in a pass looking for Pazzini but Buffon reads the play well and rushes off his line to beat the young striker to the ball.
25' Ranieri is up off the bench with his arms folded wearing a worried look on his face as his team is a goal behind before the 30 minute mark. Camoranesi takes his eye off the ball which slips under his foot in a dangerous position.
23' Gobbi charges forward and finds Pazzini who lets a shot fly that is charged down by Legrotagglie. Juventus look disheveled at the moment and are in danger of being run off the pitch in the early going.
21' Oh!!!! Juventus are completely on the back foot as Fiorentina should really be up by two goals as Santana crosses for Jorgenson who cannot direct his header on goal but the loose ball squirts to Montolivo whose low drive is parried away by Buffon off the post and somehow stays out!!!
19' Goal!!!!! You could see it coming as Gobbi and Jorgenson play a lovely one-two and the Fiorentina defender slots the ball into the bottom corner to give his team an early lead!!! A composed finish by Gobbi left Buffon with no chance.
19' Goal Gobbi M.
17' Santana muscles Molinaro off the ball but his pass looking for Pazzini is intercepted and the chance is wasted. It's been all Fiorentina in the last five minutes as Donadel sends a shot from 30 yards that clears the crossbar.
15' A mistake by Molinaro as he lets the ball bounce over his head and Santana pounces on the ball and lets a shot fly that is charged down. Fiorentina win another free kick and Kuzmanovic's delivery is to the far post once again but out of the reach of Kroldrup.
13' Trezeguet is caught offside as he looks for the opening goal of the match. Santana runs at the Juventus defence and finds Ujfalusi whose cross is blocked by Molinaro who then fouls the Fiorentina defender. Kuzmanovic's delivery is floated to the back post for Jorgenson who cannot direct his header on goal.
11' It's been a bright start by both teams as they are really going for gold this afternoon. Sissoko takes down Ujfalusi and concedes the free kick which comes to nothing. Sissoko gets the nod ahead of Nocerino once again as he has gained the confidence of his manager.
9' Gobbi tugs on Del Piero's shirt and concedes the free kick. Del Piero's delivery is headed out for a corner kick. Camoranesi's delivery is headed by Gamberini straight to Gobbi who lofts the ball upfield and clears the danger.
7' Pazzini looks to free up Santana on the left flank but Legrotagglie ushers the ball out of play and the attack fizzles out. Montolivo finds Santana out wide and he lays it off for Kuzmanovic whose shot is blocked.
5' Oh!!!! Zebina almost opens the scoring as he gets on the end of a Del Piero cross but sends his header over the crossbar from six yards!!! He should have hit the net form there!!
3' Camoranesi finds Zebina on the right flank and his first time cross for Trezeguet is just out of his reach. It is a sold out affair in Turin as you would expect for a match of this magnitude and the crowd is in full voice already. Camoranesi is caught offside as he tries to sneak behind the Fiorentina defence.
1 Stefano Farina gets the match underway in Turin with Ranieri opting to start Del Piero and Trezeguet upfront while Prandelli counters with Pazzini and Santana. The Viola haven't beat their bitter rivals since 1998 and will be eager to end that period of futility this afternoon while the Bianconeri have hit a bump in the road losing to Reggina last weekend and picking up a draw midweek versus Torino so nothing less than a victory will suffice today.
