Very heated match in terms of tackles and play actions. TURIN (ITALPRESS) – Balance between Torino and Fiorentina, which ended with a 0-0 result at the end of a match which was very lively in terms of tackles and play actions. The game was initially blocked, with Torino coming close to taking the lead twice in the eighteenth minute, first with Zapata’s personal dribbling action which ended with his right-footed shot just over; then with Vlasic, who, caught on the edge of the area, shoots around and calls Terracciano into a diving intervention. Fiorentina responds, in the 25th minute, with Sottil’s ball management and the service on the left for Biraghi who crosses and finds the head of Nico Gonzalez, who is not precise in directing the ball into the net.
At the end of the first half, Torino would also find the opening goal, thanks to Zapata’s long-range shot which goes behind Terracciano, but the VAR calls Marchetti to review who cancels the goal due to a previous foul committed by the Colombian center forward. It remains 0-0, but just before the break Juric’s team is left with ten men due to the expulsion of Ricci who, having been booked, protests excessively about a foul against him which however leads him to end his game early match. In the second half the home team started again strongly, with the opportunity coming to Bellanova, who closed the restart started by the newly introduced Gineitis with a right-footed shot, with Terracciano having to intervene again. The Granata goalkeeper responds to the Viola goalkeeper, with Nico Gonzalez’s cross and Bonaventura’s header saved by the Serbian goalkeeper who takes it away from the top corner. The same Argentine number 10 will once again be the protagonist in injury time, with his dribbling on the edge of the area and his left-footed shot on which Milinkovic Savi once again intervenes with a diving save, putting an end to one of the Tuscans’ last initiatives and closing in fact the match at the Olimpico Grande Torino. – photo Ipa Agency – (ITALPRESS). xi6/gm/red 02-Mar-24 10.55pm .
