I numeri della sfida del Renato Dall’Ara: i rossoblù hanno tirato più volte in porta, meritando la vittoria arrivata nel finale
A bad setback for Torino in Emilia, especially in the ways in which it came. The granata gave a Champions League contender like Bologna a run for their money, coming within a step of snatching a point that would have been very important in order to close salvation talks. But then an own goal by Biraghi ruined everything, causing Vanoli’s boys to return from Emilia with empty spoils. Perhaps, however, the defeat was the fairest result for what the two teams showed on the field: Adams and his teammates did indeed put the Rossoblù in trouble, who, however, kicked a lot more.
Le statistiche
Despite heavy rain and a hardly practicable pitch, Bologna and Torino did not back down and put on a good challenge; a challenge that as mentioned saw both create several chances, but the hosts more than the granata. 14 to 7 in particular was the number of potentially dangerous goal chances produced by the two formations. The Emilians kicked as many as 22 times but framed only 6 times the goal; on the contrary, Vanoli’s team put together only 8 shots but 5 of them towards the mirror, for a total of 2.16-1.21 expected goals. This also means that Skorupski made 3 saves, while Milinkovic-Savic made 4.
I dati del possesso
Quite unusually compared to the other matches, Torino was also “crushed” in terms of ball possession by Italiano’s Bologna. In fact, the Rossoblù put together 65%, while the Granata 35% and only 156 passes. A different match from the usual ones, mostly due to the characteristics of the Emiliani.
Giovanni Fabbian of Bologna FC competes for the ball with Nikola Vlasic and Samuele Ricci of Torino FC during the Serie A football match between Torino FC and Bologna FC.
