Torino FC's Nightmare in Como: A 6-0 Humbling

The sun set on Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia, but darkness had already engulfed Torino FC. On January 25, 2026, Torino FC suffered a devastating 6-0 defeat to Como in Serie A, a loss that sends shockwaves through their campaign. The match was a spectacle of Como's prowess and Torino's vulnerabilities.

Anastasios Douvikas opened the floodgates in the 8th minute, slicing through Torino's defense with ease before slotting the ball home. It was a prelude to more woes for Torino, as just seven minutes later, Martin Baturina unleashed a drilled effort from distance, doubling the lead. Within 16 minutes, Torino found themselves drowning in a sea of Como's relentless offensive waves.

As the clock ticked past the hour mark, Douvikas struck again, showcasing his composure in the box. Moments later, Lucas Da Cunha converted a penalty, burying any hopes of a Torino comeback. The onslaught continued with Nicolas-Gerrit Kühn's spectacular dipping effort and Maxence Caqueret's sublime volley, sealing Torino's fate.

Cesc Fabregas, at the helm of Como, orchestrated this masterclass, propelling his team to their fourth win in six Serie A games. Como now sits proudly in fifth place, leapfrogging the likes of Juventus. Meanwhile, Torino is left to ponder their predicament, having suffered their fourth consecutive league defeat. Nestled precariously six points above 18th-place Lecce, the specter of a relegation battle looms.

Torino's defensive frailties were glaring, having conceded a league-high 18 first-half goals before this match. Como's ability to open scoring in eight of their last ten home games was a harbinger of the storm that Torino failed to weather. The road ahead is daunting, as Torino grapples with their form and future in Serie A.
