Fiorentina U20 secured a commanding 2-0 win over Bologna U20 in the Italian Campionato Primavera 1 on May 25, 2026. The Viola’s youth side produced a mature performance to consolidate their position near the top of the Primavera 1 table.

Match Overview

At the Viola Park training centre, Fiorentina started brightly and never let Bologna settle. The visitors, who have struggled on the road this season, were pinned back from the first whistle as the home side’s high press caused constant turnovers in dangerous areas.

Key Moments

• 18th minute: Fiorentina broke the deadlock after a surging run from left‑back Tommaso Corradino. His cross found striker Lorenzo Signorini, who volleyed home from close range.
• 63rd minute: The second goal came from a well‑worked training ground move. A short corner was played to midfielder Gabriele Baccini, who drilled a low shot into the bottom corner from the edge of the box.

Tactical Story

Fiorentina manager Daniele Galloppa set his team up in a 4‑3‑3 that allowed wingers to stay wide and stretch Bologna’s defence. Bologna tried to play out from the back but were repeatedly forced into long balls by Fiorentina’s intense pressing. The Viola midfield of Baccini, Nicolò Fusi, and Mattia Mencarelli dominated possession, completing over 85% of their passes in the opposition half.

Standout Performers

• Lorenzo Signorini – A constant threat, scored the opener and held the ball up well.
• Gabriele Baccini – Controlled the midfield and added a well‑taken goal.
• Tommaso Corradino – Energetic down the left flank, provided the assist for the first goal.

Table Impact

The win keeps Fiorentina U20 in the top three of the Primavera 1 standings, firmly in contention for the Scudetto Primavera. Bologna U20 remain in mid‑table, and the gap to the relegation play‑out zone is narrowing. The result underlines the depth of talent emerging from Fiorentina’s academy.
