Fiorentina 1-1 Juventus: Post-match review, Stats, Key moments

Dive into Bwin’s post-match review of Fiorentina 1-1 Juventus in the Serie A on Saturday, 22 November 2025, with stats, key moments and our take on the match.

The match between Fiorentina and Juventus got off to a tense start with early yellow cards shown to Fabiano Parisi in the 5th minute and Nicolò Fagioli in the 7th minute, setting a combative tone. A potential turning point came in the 15th minute when Dušan Vlahović had a penalty cancelled for Juventus, keeping the score level, before Weston McKennie's booking in the 42nd minute added to the disciplinary count. Just before the break, Juventus broke the deadlock in the 45th minute as Filip Kostić scored, assisted by Vlahović, giving the visitors a slender lead heading into half-time.

Fiorentina responded quickly after the restart, with N. Fortini replacing Dodo at the 46th minute, and Rolando Mandragora equalising in the 48th minute with an assist from Moise Kean to level the scores. Substitutions continued to shape the game, with Fiorentina bringing on C. Ndour for S. Sohm and A. Gudmundsson for R. Piccoli at the 60th minute, while Juventus introduced J. Cabal for Kostić and F. Miretti for K. Thuram at the 66th minute. Late changes saw E. Kouadio replace F. Parisi for Fiorentina at the 69th minute, F. Conceicao come on for A. Cambiaso at the 76th minute for Juventus, and further swaps including M. Viti for L. Ranieri at the 82nd minute, before L. Openda and J. David replaced K. Yildiz and Vlahović respectively at the 88th minute, but the match ended in a 1-1 draw amid late yellow cards to Mandragora and Juan Cabal in the 84th minute and Fabio Miretti in the 90+3rd minute.

Juventus dominated possession with 59% compared to Fiorentina's 41%, allowing them to control much of the tempo and create more fluid attacking opportunities, as evidenced by their 63 successful dribbles against Fiorentina's 29, which highlighted their superior individual skill in beating defenders. However, Fiorentina edged the corner count 7-3, providing them with set-piece threats that contributed to their equaliser, while both sides recorded one assist each, reflecting the clinical nature of their goals despite the balanced yellow card tally of three apiece and no red cards or injury-time goals to alter the outcome. With five substitutions used by each team, the changes injected fresh energy, particularly for Fiorentina who utilised theirs to mount a comeback, though the lack of penalties taken meant neither side benefited from spot-kicks, ultimately leading to a hard-fought draw where Juventus's dominance in key metrics was not enough to secure all three points.

The match's momentum shifted notably in the 15th minute when Juventus were denied a penalty for Dušan Vlahović after it was cancelled, preventing an early lead and keeping Fiorentina in contention during a scrappy first half. The decisive breakthrough came in the 45th minute as Filip Kostić scored for Juventus with an assist from Vlahović, but Fiorentina hit back swiftly in the 48th minute through Rolando Mandragora's goal, assisted by Moise Kean, which proved a crucial equaliser. Key substitutions, such as Juventus bringing on J. Cabal for Kostić and F. Miretti for Thuram at the 66th minute, aimed to maintain their edge, while late yellow cards, including Mandragora's in the 84th minute, added tension but did not lead to further scoring.

Fiorentina lined up in a 3-5-2 formation, relying on a solid defensive base to counter Juventus's attacks while pushing wing-backs forward to support the front pair, with standout partnerships evident in midfield where Rolando Mandragora's energy combined effectively with Moise Kean's creativity to produce the equalising goal.

Juventus deployed a 3-4-2-1 shape, emphasising width through their midfield quartet and allowing attacking midfielders like Filip Kostić to link up with striker Dušan Vlahović, whose assist highlighted a key partnership that unlocked Fiorentina's defence for their opening goal before late substitutions adjusted their forward line.

Rolando Mandragora earned Man of the Match honours for his pivotal role in Fiorentina's comeback, scoring the equaliser in the 48th minute with composure and displaying relentless energy in midfield to disrupt Juventus's possession dominance, making him a standout performer in a tightly contested draw.
