However, just before the break it was the side from Florence that had the ball in the back of the net, but it was ruled out for offside. WestHam took the lead from the spot after the referee had to check a handball incident by Fiorentina captain Biraghi.

Said Benrahma gave the irons the lead from the spot, but just 4 minutes later, Fiorentina equalized through Giacomo Bonaventura. Jarrod Bowen was on hand in the 90th minute to break the heart of Fiorentina fans right at the death.
