The English side proved too strong in Florence

Fiorentina’s Champions League journey is over after a 5-0 defeat to Manchester City in Florence on Thursday afternoon.

City scored twice more after the break to wrap up a 5-0 win on the day, with the only positive for Fiorentina the return Stephanie Breitner after a long absence.
