Kostic scores late in the half, the former Juventus and Purple: "It hurts, it really hurts"
Massimo Orlando, former of Juventus and especially Fiorentina, who was deployed by Radio Rai as the second voice in the commentary in the Artemio Franchi match between the Viola and the Bianconeri, commented warmly on the goal scored by Filip Kostic at the end of the first half of the game.
“The Serbian – said – he was very good in the stop, then he scored a great goal. There was little pressure from the lily midfielders and defenders, though: Fiorentina taking goals at the last second makes you realize how difficult this year is. A goal taken at this moment hurts, very bad”.
At minute 19, match director Doveri had been forced to stop the game to restore order, resuming it after a couple of minutes. The target of the chants, specifically, Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic, a former Fiorentina man himself and Kostic’s compatriot. Not even the announcement by the speaker, who a few minutes earlier had advised spectators to avoid inappropriate behavior, prevented the offensive chants against the footballer from coming from the stands.
Play resumed when the situation returned to normal: however, the match director confirmed his’intention to interrupt in the event of a repetition of behavior similar to that which forced him to stop play just moments before.
