Outstanding performance
Roma•DefenderRoma imposed themselves from the opening whistle, racking up 71 dangerous attacks to Torino's 27 and doubling their hosts up on shots, corners, and fouls won. Donyell Malen's 40th-minute strike, poached from close range after Torino conceded a needless free kick, gave the visitors the lead they never relinquished. Torino created enough half-chances to stay in the game - three big chances created, three missed - but couldn't turn territory into real threat, managing just three shots on target across ninety minutes. Niccolò Pisilli sealed it in the fourth minute of stoppage time, capping a professional away performance that keeps Roma firmly in the title conversation while leaving Torino to ponder their wastefulness in front of goal.
