10 matchday stats from Roma’s dramatic 3-2 win over Torino

Match stats Torino

Roma completed a remarkable late turnaround to beat Torino on Wednesday, as substitute Francesco Totti scored twice in the last five minutes to earn the victory for Luciano Spalletti’s side

Here are 10 statistics from the game:

1. Francesco Totti scored with his first touch of the game, 22 seconds after coming on as a substitute. It was the fastest goal scored by a substitute in Serie A this season. Totti’s second goal, with his second touch, came from the penalty spot two minutes later.

2. Roma had five shots blocked during the game – two of which resulted in first-half penalty appeals for handball, which were turned away by referee Gianpaolo Calvarese.

3. The Giallorossi edged their opponents in the passing statistics, completing 435 to 431. They had a marginally superior completion rate, too – 85.2% to 79.5%.

4. The most common passing combination among players from the home side was an unlikely one – Kostas Manolas and Maicon passing the ball between one another 15 times during the course of the contest.

5. In total here were 34 shots over the 90 minutes – 20 of which came from the home side.

6. Luciano Spalletti’s side forced Torino into a total of 24 clearances, while they also conceded 16 fouls.

7. There were 14 corners in the game, with Roma earning 10 of them – and one of them leading to Kostas’ Manolas’s opening goal for the home side.

8. Totti’s second goal also meant that Roma overtook Napoli to become the top scorers in Serie A once again, with 73 goals this season.

9. Roma were dominant in the air throughout the game – winning 60.6% of the aerial battles.

10. Diego Perotti once again had an influential game, creating six chances for his teammates – double that of any other Giallorossi player.
