Fiorentina Defeats Juventus 3-0, Increases Pressure on Manager Motta

Fiorentina secured a decisive 3-0 victory over Juventus at the Stadio Artemio Franchi, intensifying the scrutiny on Juventus manager Thiago Motta after his team suffered a second consecutive heavy defeat. Goals from Robin Gosens, Rolando Mandragora, and Albert Gudmundsson propelled Fiorentina, who capitalized on Juventus's defensive errors, to a crucial win that lifts them to eighth in Serie A. This loss marks a troubling trend for Juventus, as they have now experienced back-to-back defeats by three or more goals, a scenario they have not faced since the 1950s. Fiorentina's offensive performance not only showcased their attacking prowess but also exposed Juventus's struggles, as they failed to register a single shot on target throughout the match. With Juventus now sitting fifth and one point behind Bologna, Motta's future is increasingly uncertain, especially following their earlier 4-0 defeat to Atalanta. The mounting pressure on Motta reflects Juventus's disappointing season, having been eliminated from both the Champions League and Coppa Italia recently.
