Torino win the Serie A Week 34 game defeating Spezia on Saturday 23 April 2022 at the Olimpico di Torino Stadium in Turin, Italy.

Excellent performance of the men of Ivan Juric, good at controlling the operations from the transformation of Lukic’s penalty up to the end. Manaj realizes the penalty for Spezia at the end but it is too late to try to straighten the game.
In the next round, Spezia will face Lazio at home while Torino will visit Atalanta at the Gewiss Stadium.
