Fiorentina vs Basel final score, result (Europa Conference League): Basel makeover

In the first leg of their UEFA Europa Conference League (UECL) semi-final, FC Basel defeated Fiorentina 2-1 in Italy thanks to an incredible comeback. The Swiss team was in striking reach of their first-ever European final thanks to Andy Diouf's outstanding solo goal, which put them on their path to a memorable victory.

Fiorentina vs Basel Highlights

La Viola was predicted to take control right away, but the visitors had better opening opportunities. Jean-Kévin Augustin even managed to score early on, but the goal was disallowed for a slight offside. Then, Wouter Burger's header was wide and Pietro Terracciano made a fantastic full-stretch stop to deny Diouf access to the bottom corner.

Basel was ultimately made to pay for those wasted opportunities when an unmarked Arthur Cabral scored against his previous team, setting a new record for the most goals in the UECL this season with his close-range goal. That was Fiorentina's lone effort on goal in the first half despite having 62% of the possession, as they failed to find many good opportunities against a resolute Basel defending.

Fiorentina vs Basel Summary

After the interval, things were much more level, and Burger missed a fantastic opportunity to tie the score for Heiko Vogel's team when he headed wide from a corner. At the other end, Rolando Mandragora and Jonathan Ikoné both missed efforts as both teams tried to find the back of the net until Mandragora's weak effort from the edge of the box was easily saved.

Fiorentina vs Basel Summary

Diouf scored a screamer for Basel with 20 minutes remaining. He played a fast one-two before sprinting past several players en route from the halfway line and scoring with a low drive from the fringe of the box. As Fiorentina stumbled, Zeki Amdouni scored from close range to make it 2-1 late in the extra period. Fiorentina had mishandled a pass into the area. After being defeated by Chelsea in the Europa League semi-finals ten years prior, the outcome gives the Swiss team one leg in a fantasy final that they have never had a chance to reach.
