Torino 1–3 Como: Nico Paz Inspires Late Comeback as Fàbregas Extends Winning Run

Como complete remarkable comeback against Torino

Como extended their impressive run of form with a dramatic 3–1 victory over Torino at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino on Tuesday, 27 October 2026. Cesc Fàbregas's team entered the match after an excellent sequence of results, including victories over Fiorentina and Sassuolo in Serie A and Manchester United in the Champions League. Torino were also enjoying a strong run under Ignazio Abate, having won three consecutive league matches before kick-off. The hosts made an encouraging start and took the lead through Ché Adams in the 24th minute. For much of the contest, Torino appeared capable of protecting their advantage. However, Como maintained their attacking pressure and transformed the result with three goals during the closing stages. The comeback demonstrated the visitors' resilience and their ability to convert sustained possession into decisive opportunities.

Adams punishes defensive mistake to give Torino the lead

Torino's opening goal resulted from aggressive pressing against Como's attempts to build possession from defence. Kian Fitz-Jim dispossessed Jacobo Ramón before supplying Ché Adams inside the penalty area. The Scotland international finished from close range to put the home side ahead. Como responded by increasing their attacking pressure. Anastasios Douvikas threatened the Torino goal, while Ramón and Lucas Da Cunha also found opportunities to test the hosts' defensive organisation. Maxence Caqueret struck the crossbar during the second half, underlining Como's growing threat. At the other end, Giovanni Simeone and Rafik Belghali contributed to Torino's attacking efforts. Despite several promising chances, neither team managed to change the score until the final ten minutes.

Ramón and Nico Paz turn the match around

Como's persistence was finally rewarded in the 81st minute. Nico Paz delivered an inviting cross towards the far post, where Jacobo Ramón headed home from close range. The equaliser changed the momentum of the contest. Torino, who had defended their lead for most of the match, suddenly faced an opponent determined to complete the comeback. Six minutes later, Como struck again. Yan Couto supplied a cross from the right and Nico Paz rose to head the ball into the net, giving the visitors a 2–1 advantage. Paz's goal completed an outstanding individual contribution after he had created the equaliser. His movement and creativity proved decisive as Como took control of the closing stages.

Baturina seals victory as Como extend winning streak

Torino attempted to find a response, but Como delivered another decisive moment in stoppage time. Martin Baturina pressured Nikola Vlašić into a mistake near the penalty area, won possession and finished past Lucas Perri. The 90+2-minute goal confirmed a 3–1 away victory. Como finished the match having enjoyed 72% possession and attempted 18 shots, compared with Torino's 11. Those figures reflected the visitors' sustained attacking pressure, although the decisive goals arrived remarkably late. The result continued Como's excellent start to the Serie A campaign and represented another significant success for Fàbregas. For Torino, the defeat ended a three-match league winning run and exposed difficulties defending against sustained pressure. The contest also demonstrated why maintaining concentration until the final whistle remains essential, regardless of how long a team has held the lead.
