Como secured a convincing 5-1 victory over Torino at the Olympic Stadium in Turin during the 12th round of Serie A. Far from feeling intimidated by a rival that is usually strong at home, the Lombards dominated the match with personality, verticality, and an excellent performance from their stars, especially Jesús Rodríguez, Jayden Addai, and Nico Paz, the great protagonists of the day, according to the Argentine News Agency (NA). The match began with Como determined to take center stage, and this attitude was rewarded at the 36th minute when Rodríguez made a run down the left flank and assisted Addai, who only had to push the ball to make it 1-0. The visitors' dominance continued, but in the final moments of the first half, Torino found a lifeline with a penalty awarded for a handball by Rodríguez, which was converted by midfielder Nikola Vlašić, equalizing the score just before halftime. In the second half, Torino tried to react immediately, but Como showed greater conviction and struck at the right moments. At the seventh minute of the second half, Rodríguez reappeared to launch a precise pass to Addai, who, with a powerful shot from the edge of the box, secured his brace and restored the lead to the visitors. Como's performance peaked at the 26th minute, as after a corner kick and a rebound, Máximo Perrone sent a pinpoint cross into the area for Jacobo Ramón, who won the aerial battle and scored a brilliant header to make it 3-1. With Torino in disarray, Cesc Fàbregas's side continued to press and at the 33rd minute, Paz joined the party after a VAR review, capitalizing on an assist in the box to coolly make it 4-1. The final touch came five minutes from the end, in another quick transition, substitute Martin Baturina sealed the 5-1 victory.
