Fiorentina, an appointment with history: if they also beat Inter they will equal the 1960 record

With the cup behind them, and avoiding early distractions, Fiorentina can now really project themselves with all the energy they have into what, this evening, promises to be a real appointment with history. Franchi’s match against the reigning Italian champions Inter is scheduled for 6pm and the club can’t wait to look forward to a match that could mean entry into the record books for Mister Palladino and the team at his orders.

In the event of a noble success against Inter, Fiorentina would in fact equal its record of consecutive successes in a single edition of Serie Awhich has been going on uninterruptedly for over sixty years (it was created between February and May 1960) and at the same time would record the best start in the first 14 days since three points were awarded for each victory, putting the arrow also on that of Sousa in 2015 who ran very fast in the opening half of the tournament, only to slow down at the end.

Trying to predict what will become of this Fiorentina is extremely recklessPalladino himself would disagree and would point out that his team does not have to set itself objectives and/or limits, certainly entering the club’s record book would be a further presentation ticket that could no longer really be ignored. At that point no one at all.
