Fiorentina archived its first win in four games when a first half goal from Robin Gosens held up to beat l Lecce 1-0 in Serie A.
The German defender put in a thumping header after nine minutes, connecting with a deep cross from Brazilian full back Dodo.
Fiorentina should have made sure the victory after 73 minutes but Lucas Beltran’s penalty, given after a handball in the box, came back unexpected way. The same player had the shot hit the woodwork in the final minutes.
Fiorentina moved into sixth place and Lecce remained 16th, four points above the relegation zone and without a win in four games.
