After a valiant effort in Milan, Torino has secured their spot in the Coppa Italia quarterfinals.
Given their recent record against Milan, Juric's team was given little chance of success, but they managed to win with 10 men.
In the first 45 minutes, Pioli's team lagged far behind, but they picked up the tempo in the second half and appeared to be on their way to a victory when Djidji received a second yellow card for a foul on Messias. Although Messias had an early effect, the full-back squandered his one scoring chance.
Dest, Calabria, Hernandez, and Leao all had more opportunities, but Milan's goal-scoring performance was a far cry from their usual standard. In the 114th minute, Torino mounted a counterattack, which ultimately came back to haunt them. Adopo tapped after receiving a superb cross from Bayeye.
