A vain draw. Fiorentina players wearing black armbands in memory of former Fiorentina player Aldo Scaramucci, who passed away recently. Born in 1933, Scaramucci spent four seasons with the Viola between 1954 and 1958. Scaramucci was part of the squad that won the 1955/56 Serie A title and he played in the 1957 European Cup final against Real Madrid.

Fiorentina reacting in the 8th minute. Midfielder Matias Fernandez seeing a chance to score with a right footed shot though Torino goalkeeper Danielle Padelli saves in the bottom right corner.
