[h2]Winner: [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/mastantuono-franco/tpBPaidM/"]Franco Mastantuono[/a][/h2][p]The results of [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/fiorentina/Q3A3IbXH/"]Fiorentina[/a] (three losses in their first three games) had indirectly cast doubt on the abilities of the club's many new signings, including the Argentine owned by [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/real-madrid/W8mj7MDD/"]Real Madrid[/a].[/p][p]But the number 19 for the Tuscan side delivered an outstanding individual performance against [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/venezia/MkPmVv50/"]Venezia[/a], dazzling the crowd at the 'Penzo'.[/p][image alt="Mastantuono performance" id="f4c372f7-e8d6-4e72-8f69-f3a4fa510951" credit-line="Flashscore" guid="efd27906-ca44-4bf3-a775-26f6b75b6af0" original-width="2160" original-height="2700" /][p]The former River Plate player scored twice with his left foot in the first half to lead his team’s comeback after [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/adams-che/4C0YmOaJ/"]Che Adams[/a]’ goal, then netted the temporary 4-1 from close range to seal the win.[/p][infobox id="c5ce5f5a-ccb6-468f-9fce-bb4a330c372a" /][h2]Losers: [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/tottenham/UDg08Ohm/"]Tottenham[/a][/h2][p]Another tough season seems to be looming for the London side, despite all the money spent in the summer transfer window on Van Hecke, Tonali, [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/savinho/8hWiVSza/"]Savinho[/a], Mudryk and more.[/p][p]The team coached by Roberto De Zerbi is still searching for its first win of the season, and over the weekend they could only manage a [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/game/soccer/everton-KluSTr9s/tottenham-UDg08Ohm/?mid=K2LQ0MxS"]0-0 draw[/a] at home against [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/everton/KluSTr9s/"]Everton[/a].[/p][image alt="The bottom of the table" id="54c9f4d3-81fa-4e72-92bd-95c3b26626ab" credit-line="Flashscore" guid="73231a68-f7b0-4b66-b172-e028865bdc00" original-width="1200" original-height="1200" /][p]The most surprising stat is the zero in the goals scored column after four matches, a negative record in Spurs’ history. Luckily, for now, there are three teams ([a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/aston-villa/W00wmLO0/"]Aston Villa[/a], [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/fulham/69ZiU2Om/"]Fulham[/a], and [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/coventry/GOvB22xg/"]Coventry[/a]) doing even worse in the standings.[/p][h2]Winner: [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/moreira-diego/0QNoKs1B/"]Diego Moreira[/a][/h2][p]The Portuguese player, a mystery signing in the summer market for [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/ac-milan/8Sa8HInO/"]Milan,[/a] also due to the fee paid to bring him in (about 50 million including bonuses), had yet to make an impact in his first outings of the season.[/p][p]He was also coming off a lacklustre performance in Turin against [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/juventus/C06aJvIB/"]Juventus[/a], starting on the right under Amorim and then being subbed off in the 61st minute.[/p][embed

left-back [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/estupinan-pervis/OIhsN1nG/"]Estupinan[/a], he managed to score twice in two minutes, earning his team a [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/game/soccer/ac-milan-8Sa8HInO/lazio-URcSl02h/?mid=vJU3gPT8"]valuable draw[/a] and finally showing what he’s made of.[/p][h2]Losers: Valencia[/h2][p]Valencia started the season with a 0-0 home draw against [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/celta-vigo/8pvUZFhf/"]Celta Vigo[/a], then suffered four straight defeats, [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/game/soccer/sevilla-h8oAv4Ts/valencia-CQeaytrD/?mid=pWui9o1n"]the latest coming at home against Sevilla over the weekend[/a].[/p][p]Such a run has left the Spanish side at the bottom of the table, among the small group of teams yet to pick up three points.[/p][embed guid="2acae8d6-fe6b-4c91-8be2-d2ea6a647f91" url="https://x.com/valenciacf_en/status/2099128984311054497" social-type="twitter" /][p]The situation came to a head after the match, when both coach Corberan and CEO Gourlay were relieved of their duties.[/p][h2]Winner: [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/atubolu-noah/UwlvfZCm/"]Noah Atubolu[/a][/h2][p]The [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/eintracht-frankfurt/8vndvXTk/"]Eintracht Frankfurt[/a] goalkeeper is making more and more history in the German league after saving his sixth consecutive penalty, his seventh in the last eleven attempts.[/p][p]The former [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/freiburg/fiEQZ7C7/"]Freiburg[/a] keeper stopped Amiri’s shot at 0-0, and later his team managed a [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/game/soccer/eintracht-frankfurt-8vndvXTk/mainz-EuakNmc1/?mid=YTLWFMDF"]3-1 away win[/a] over [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/mainz/EuakNmc1/"]Mainz[/a].[/p][embed guid="6c30b645-d570-4a5b-bde5-875bc74215ef" url="https://x.com/eintrachtint/status/2098782738127974467?s=20" social-type="twitter" /][p]He continues to be one of the most reliable goalkeepers in the Bundesliga: who knows, maybe one day Klopp will consider him, unlike Nagelsmann.[/p][h2]Loser: [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/vazquez-luis/pILm9siL/"]Luis Vazquez[/a][/h2][p]Let’s continue with individual performances, with the incredible miss by the [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/birmingham/SWk4muv7/"]Birmingham[/a] player from the Championship, who failed to score an unmissable goal.[/p][embed guid="5e6b97cb-148f-47e2-88a5-a7a5c6f7e9db" url="https://x.com/tajfballcentral/status/2098779309876117749?s=20" social-type="twitter" /][p]Luckily for him, it didn’t affect the final result, as his club still managed to win away at [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/derby/Iug0YO0Q/"]Derby County[/a].[/p][h2]Winner: [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/ruocco-francesco/dCTZFBZK/"]Francesco Ruocco[/a][/h2][p]Speaking of second divisions, let’s include some Serie B: the [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/mantova/z7WK5Pwb/"]Mantova[/a] player deserves a spot in this roundup for his scoring streak.[/p][p]Even though he’s not a centre forward, he has scored in every game his team has played this season, including both Coppa Italia matches against [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/lazio/URcSl02h/"]Lazio[/a] and [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/palermo/n38Nktmn/"]Palermo[/a].[/p][image alt="Ruocco recent performances"

href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/carrarese/hG4fg4z3/"]Carrarese[/a], [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/empoli/0ESCnI1H/"]Empoli[/a], [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/cesena/xddf1qfh/"]Cesena[/a], and [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/sampdoria/nJbCGx2U/"]Sampdoria[/a], will he score again next weekend against Pisa?[/p][h2]Losers: [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/zwolle/r1L5w2EB/"]PEC Zwolle[/a][/h2][p]This isn’t the first big win of the season in the Eredivisie and it won’t be the last, but Zwolle's [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/game/soccer/feyenoord-8zjySeoN/zwolle-r1L5w2EB/?mid=4EyuGmGF"]7-0 home defeat[/a] against [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/feyenoord/8zjySeoN/"]Feyenoord[/a] will go down in history.[/p][p]It’s actually the worst defeat ever for the Dutch side, who had never before lost by a seven-goal margin.[/p][p]All of this happened under the eyes of Arne Slot: a former Zwolle player and former Feyenoord coach, who didn’t want to miss the show.[/p]
