Primavera TIMVISION Cup: Samp see off Torino

Samp needed extra time to overcome Torino 3-2 in the end Felice Tufano’s Sampdoria Primavera won their round of 16 match in the TIMVISION Cup. They will now face Atalanta in the quarter-finals.

In what was a topsy-turvy game Samp just about managed to beat Torino. Having gone into the half-time break 1-0 up it seemed that the second half would be relatively straightforward. However a flurry of three goals in 14 minutes saw the game turned on its head, and the game was taken to extra time. It took a strike by Malagrida in the seventh minute of extra time to seal the win for Tufano’s side, who are already looking ahead to their clash with Atalanta in the quarters.
