Torino is first and undefeated in this year’s Serie A. The “Granata” defeated the newly-enlightened Venezia 1-0 in Venice in the match that “opened the curtain” of the third matchday of Serie A and was temporarily at the top of the standings, waiting for its derby later Inter vs Atalanta in the “Meatsa” and basically what Juventus will do in Sunday’s home derby against Roma.
Instead, the newcomers stayed in penultimate place with one point, awaiting the results of the other teams in the low places.
The Piedmontese were superior and missed chances and eventually scored with Koko’s header in the 86th minute after Masina’s corner.
