Primavera, Atalanta 1-2 Fiorentina
Baldo on target for the Nerazzurri
Matchday 36 of the 2025/26 Primavera 1 ‘Trofeo Giacinto Facchetti’ saw Fiorentina impose themselves 2–1 at the Centro Bortolotti.
The first chance of the match fell to the Tuscan side shortly after the 15-minute mark: played in behind down the left flank, Mazzeo went for a placed right-footed effort towards the far post, comfortably gathered by Anelli. Around the half-hour mark, the 2008-born goalkeeper was called into action again, diving to parry Jallow’s long-range attempt. A few minutes later, the Nerazzurri responded to Fiorentina’s pressure, with Baldo firing wide from the edge of the box. In the 38th minute, it was Baldo who broke the deadlock, drilling a left-footed shot just inside the post after an excellent ball recovery from Ramaj high up the pitch. At Zingonia, coach Bosi’s side went into the break 1-0 up.
In the second half, Fiorentina levelled the score in the 58th minute through Puzzoli’s left-footed finish. Seven minutes later, the Nerazzurri looked to regain the lead from a set piece, but Valdivia’s dangerous effort was tipped behind for a corner by Leonardelli. Two minutes later, following a quick break down the right led by Cakolli, coach Bosi’s side threatened again, but Baldo fired over the bar from close range. In the closing stages, the visitors took the lead as Atzeni finished with a diagonal strike inside the box from a cross delivered by substitute Evangelista. In stoppage time, Atalanta pushed hard for an equaliser, but the Tuscan side held on to secure a 2–1 win at the Centro Bortolotti.
