Fiorentina, Palladino’s secret weapon is dead balls: 7 out of 9 goals came like this

Record dead balls. There Florentine he scored 7 goals out of 9 in Serie A with this method which clearly hides in-depth weekly work combined with a hint of fatality. Free kicks, corners, penalties and throw-ins are a more than effective resource for the Viola who started from the first day with captain Cristiano Biraghi’s free kick in Parma, which was decisive for the 1-1 final.

But it is on corners that Fiorentina currently holds the 2024/2025 championship record with 3 goals from corner kicks. The newspaper talks about real schemes implemented, at least for the two goals scored in September against Monza (first Cataldi for Kean and then Adli for Gosens), while Martinez Quarta’s goal in Bergamo was more maneuvered. Another flash from Quarta should be added to this list, in the first leg of the Conference against Puskas Akademia.

The dead ball solution is the main solution with which Fiorentina scored. The percentage is 77.8 and it is obviously
very high. Only Kean’s goals in Bergamo and Gudmundsson’s goals in his last outing with Milan came from action, i.e. two out of nine in total. Reporting it is La Gazzetta dello Sport.
