Bologna snapped a month-long winless streak in the league by edging Torino 2-1 at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino, marking their first victory since January 15 in Verona.
The first half was a subdued affair, played in front of eerily quiet stands as Torino’s ultras stayed away in protest against club president Cairo.
On the pitch, Bologna looked the more composed side, with chances for Bernardeschi and Rowe, but neither side could find the net before halftime..
The deadlock was broken early in the second half. Rowe orchestrated Bologna’s opener, with Moro redirecting the ball via a clever backheel that left Paleari wrong-footed for the 1-0 lead.
Torino responded swiftly: Skorupski denied Duvan Zapata, but Vlasic was quickest to react, slotting home an equalizer through Miranda’s legs.
The decisive moment arrived in the 70th minute when Santiago Castro struck a clinical winner, completing Bologna’s comeback with a perfectly timed finish. Torino struggled to respond in the closing stages, as fan protests echoed around the nearly empty stadium.
Bologna’s win lifts them back into contention while Torino is left to regroup amid unrest off the pitch.
