In the last 16 rounds of the Italian Cup, Roma and Turin faced each other at the Olympic Stadium. National football players Zeki Çelik and Emirhan İlkhan took the field in the first 11 in the match.
The guest team started the match effectively and went to the locker room leading 1-0 with Che Adams’ goal in the 35th minute. At the very beginning of the second half, Roma equalized the score with Hermoso’s goal in the 46th minute. However, Torino regained the upper hand with Adams’ goal in the 52nd minute. The home team equalized once again with Arena in the 81st minute.
The breaking point of the match occurred in the 90th minute. Emirhan İlkhan, who found the ball in front of him in the chaos that occurred in the Roman penalty area during the corner taken by Torino, sent the ball into the net, making the score 3-2 and taking his team to the quarter-finals.
With this result, Torino bid farewell to Rome from the cup and were matched with Inter in the quarter-finals.
