Cerci stunner wins it for Torino

Torino have scored two goals in stoppage time to earn themselves a 2-1 victory in their Serie A match against Genoa this afternoon.

Marco Motta had the first chance of the game for the visitors when his deflected strike from the edge of the box was saved by Daniele Padelli.

Alessio Cerci then threatened for Torino, but he saw his powerful effort pushed wide by Mattia Perin.

Both sides were struggling to create chances, but with five minutes of the match left to play, Genoa took the lead.

Stefano Sturaro was played in down the left, before delivering a cross that was touched in from close range by Alberto Gilardino.

The visitors looked set to claim the three points, but in the second minute of stoppage time Ciro Immobile equalised for Torino. The Italian international managed to work some room on the edge of the box before curling an effort into the top corner.

They scored a second a minute later when Cerci picked up the ball 25 yards out from goal, before firing a strike across Perin and into the top corner to claim all three points.
