Torino edges Sassuolo for comeback win

ROME - Sassuolo fumbled a 2-0 lead to suffer a 3-2 away defeat to Torino in a rescheduled Serie A fixture on Wednesday.

The fixture of the 24th round was postponed due to the outbreak of COVID-19 cases in Torino.

In Wednesday's match, a pair of strikes from Domenico Berardi put Sassuolo firmly in charge of the first half.

However, the Granata ran riots in the final phase of the game as Simone Zaza and Rolando Mandragora's goals in a span of nine minutes helped Torino get back on level terms before Zaza scoring the winner in the stoppages time.

Torino now sits in 17th with 23 points, one point above the relegation zone, while Sassuolo ranks eighth with 39 points.
