Soggy Fiorentina deny Crotone first Serie A win

Crotone's wait for a first Serie A win of the season goes on after Fiorentina snatched a late point from a 1-1 draw in a weather-affected match in Florence.

Diego Falcinelli gave the visitors hope of an elusive victory when he struck from close range in the 20th minute, moments after team-mate Marcello Trotta was denied by Viola goalkeeper Ciprian Tatarusanu.

The goal came just two minutes after a lengthy delay due to inclement weather, with Fiorentina slow to get back up to speed.

But just as it looked as though rock-bottom Crotone might take the three points, Davide Astori struck in the 85th minute to save Fiorentina's blushes.
