Fiorentina unprecedented in Europe: it’s an all-time record

An outcome that leaves a hint of bitterness in the mouth, but still rewrites history.

Fiorentina netted in the Conference League after a 0-0 draw picked up in the Czech Republic against Viktoria Plzen. A result that certainly did not make the Viola rejoice, even lashed out at the end of the game by Vincenzo Italiano. Despite that, forò, è a Thursday of glory for the Florence club able to achieve an unprecedented result in its history.

In fact, Fiorentina hit a string of 10 consecutive matches in the European cups without any defeat. This figure, for the Gigliati, is unprecedented and è the fruit of the immaculate path recorded this season in the Conference League.

Before the 0-0 draw with Viktoria Plzen, in fact, Fiorentina was fresh off a win and a draw against Maccabi Haifa and three wins and three draws in the group stage against Genk, Ferencvaros and Cukaricki. Previously, in the playoffs, it had beaten Rapid Vienna. The last defeat remains the one that came in the first leg against the Austrians, preceded only by the final a year ago against West Ham. In that edition of the Conference League, however, the liliati had also lost to Basaksehir in the group stage, Lech Poznan in the quarters and Basel in the semifinals.
