Torino came away from the Franchi with a 1-2 win over Fiorentina on Saturday, 5 September 2026, ending a goalless first half with a much sharper second-half showing. Fiorentina had chances early doors, and finished with more shots overall, 14 to Torino's 7, but couldn't turn that pressure into anything at the break. Torino made their possession count, holding the ball for 60% of the game, and did the damage when it mattered most. Mandragora was at the heart of it all, pulling the strings in midfield and picking up the Man of the Match award with an 8.2 rating for his efforts. Fiorentina pushed hard late on and had six shots on target to Torino's four, but the away side's five corners to three told a story of a team that kept finding pockets of space. A result like this stings for the hosts, who'll wonder how they didn't get more from their overall shot count, while Torino take a big three points on the road.
The Matchup
Torino beat Fiorentina 1-2 at Stadio Artemio Franchi, and the numbers from the match back up how the game played out. Even without the extra share of possession, which finished 40% in favour of Fiorentina, Torino made the most of the chances that mattered and did enough to see the game out. The shot count told a similar story, with 14 attempts from Fiorentina against 7 from Torino over the course of the game. Fiorentina had their moments and did not make it easy from start to finish, but ultimately came up short on the day. Small margins like this one tend to add up over a season, and results such as this are often what separates teams in the table further down the line. Here is a closer look at exactly how the two sides compared, statistically.
