Striker scores in each half to dump out PSV

Adrian Mutu struck twice for Fiorentina to set up a Uefa Cup semi-final with Rangers after a 2-0 win at PSV Eindhoven. The Dutch champions headed into the quarter-final second leg seemingly with the edge after a 1-1 draw in Italy last week. But Mutu scored in each half for the Viola, while PSV fluffed the chance to mount a late comeback when Timmy Simons' penalty was saved. Fiorentina keeper Sebastien Frey pushed first-leg scorer Danny Koevermans' shot round the post early on before Giampaolo Pazzini was denied by Heurelho Gomes. Mutu, who had earlier been booked for diving, made the breakthrough on 38 minutes when he hammered a 30-yard free-kick into the top corner. The former Chelsea striker grabbed his second of the night on 54 minutes with a composed finish after Gomes had parried Pazzini's shot. Riccardo Montolivo hit the crossbar for Fiorentina just past the hour mark before PSV were awarded a penalty 10 minutes from time. Tomas Ujfalusi brought down Danko Lazovic, but Frey was equal to Simons' spot-kick as he dived to his right to make the save. Fiorentina saw out the final stages with few scares and will now face Rangers, who won 2-0 at Sporting Lisbon, in the last four.
