Crazy Football – Torino vs Fiorentina ended with a score of 0-1, La Viola achieved their seventh consecutive win in a competitive match when Moise Kean capitalized on two Torino defensive errors.
La Viola impressed, welcoming Moise Kean back to the starting line-up, despite being without Albert Gudmundsson and Marin Pongracic. On the other hand, Torino is experiencing difficulties after losing five of the last six official matches, with Duvan Zapata, Perr Schuurs, Zanos Savva, Emirhan Ilkhan and Ivan Ilic forced to miss out due to injury.
In this match, Luca Ranieri made an important block to stop Che Adams’ counterattack, and Pietro Comuzzo also made a save on Marcus Pedersen’s cross shot.
Torino’s injury crisis worsened when Adams had to be withdrawn after just 16 minutes of play due to a muscle problem.
Dodo missed a chance from outside the penalty box, but Fiorentina managed to take the lead thanks to a fatal error from the opponent. Ranieri’s long ball was allowed to bounce twice, and Kean powerfully got rid of Guillermo Maripan before pushing the ball into the empty net past Vanja Milinkovic-Savic who was trying to close down the space.
Moments later, Maripan should have scored, but it was disallowed for offside when responding to Samuele Ricci’s free kick.
Adrien Tameze missed a chance from outside the penalty box after receiving a pass from Pedersen, as well as Tonny Sanabria’s overhead kick which was too weak to threaten David de Gea.
Torino’s best chance to equalize came in the 70th minute, when Pedersen received a pass and dribbled in to beat Robin Gosens, but his shot went off the post after deflecting the ball with his left foot.
Fiorentina also hit the post soon after, as new signing Rolando Mandragora almost scored with his first touch, curling his free-kick against the post.
Dodo almost added a goal in injury time, but his shot was stopped by Milinkovic-Savic’s foot when facing one on one.
