In stoppage time: Frosinone is relegated
Over and over: The 2023/24 Serie A season is (almost) over. The last matchday was tough. Frosinone experienced a particularly bitter end.

The promoted team has to return to Serie B after a year and will play against FC Südtirol next year. The relegation couldn't have been more bitter, as coach Eusebio Di Francesco's team was only relegated in the 93rd minute. The reason for this was Empoli's winning goal, which defeated Roma 2-1 at the last second and thus saved itself.
Before the last match day, Frosinone had the best cards in hand. However: the team from Lazio had to survive at home against Udinese. The Friulians, in turn, had to win in order not to be relegated to Serie B. So it happened. Fabio Cannavaro was able to keep Udinese in the league at the last minute – on his own. Frosinone, on the other hand, had to hope for Roma and was bitterly disappointed in stoppage time. Mbaye Niang scored for Empoli to win 2-1 at home and stay in the league. This is the fourth consecutive Serie A season for the Tuscans, something that has never happened before in Empoli.
