Europa Conference League runner-up Fiorentina beat Europa League champion Atalanta 3-2 in a postponed Serie A match to conclude the Italian season and prevent the Bergamo squad from finishing third.

Atalanta finished fourth, two points behind Juventus, and Fiorentina finished eighth.

VENEZIA PROMOTED

Venezia returned to Serie A following a two-season absence with a 1-0 win over Cremonese in the second leg of a promotion playoff final. Christian Gytkjaer scored in the 24th minute for Venezia following a 0-0 draw in the first leg.

Venezia, which finished third in the Serie B table, joins Parma and Como as the teams promoted from the second division. It was Gytkjaer's sixth goal in the Serie B playoffs, having also helped Monza reach the top flight in 2022.
