Cagliari comes from behind to beat Torino 2-1 thanks to Prati (45'+1) and a stunning goal by Kilicsoy (66') that overturn Vlasic's initial goal (27'), marking his 4th consecutive goal in this championship. Final twist 

The Sardinians move to 18 points while the Granata remain at 20 after a match in which Torino shot more than twice as much as Cagliari, who were more adept at capitalizing on their chances.

In the 8th minute, a particular incident occurs that triggers protests from Cagliari: Idrissi is launched deep, Paleari comes out and deflects the ball with his hand, only to then crash into the Cagliari player with a high leg.

Doveri is sent to the monitor by VAR but the referee maintains his decision, explaining: "There is no offside and the goalkeeper touches the ball in the penalty area," meaning that the severity of the contact was not assessed: still clear on Idrissi by Paleari who had first deflected the ball with his hand in a regular manner.

At the 27th minute, Torino takes the lead 1-0 with Vlasic scoring again: 4th consecutive goal and 5th in the entire championship. Asllani initiates a counterattack leading to a shot by Simeone, Caprile's save deflects the ball to Gineitis who then offers it to Vlasic: the Croatian, alone in the area, shoots into the top corner.

As Opta reminds us, Vlasic with 5 goals + 2 assists is the 3rd Torino player, since the tournament returned to 20 teams (2004/05), to be involved in a goal for at least 6 consecutive matches in a single Serie A championship, after Immobile (6 in 2014) and Belotti (7 in 2020).

However, at 45+1', Cagliari equalizes 1-1: Gaetano takes the corner, Mazzitelli flicks it in the area, and Prati just has to tap it in from close range. It's his 1st goal of the season and 2nd overall in Serie A.


🎇 Kilicsoy's stunning goal: 2nd in a row!

Kilicsoy's 2nd consecutive goal (which we had already previewed in June 2024) in the championship is an absolute gem, worthy of the stellar second half of the season he had at Besiktas before Euro 2024.

The Turkish forward receives the ball before the halfway line, carries it, dribbles past Asllani and Gineitis with a single move, then shifts the ball to his left foot and slots it into the corner with the inside.

At the 94th minute, the referee disallows Ngonge's goal for 2-2: Aboukhlal goes to the byline and crosses for Ngonge, who scores with a left-footed volley into the bottom corner. However, the ball had completely gone out before the cross: joy stifled and 3 points go to Cagliari.
