A last-gasp penalty from Maxi Lopez earns Torino a 1-1 draw at home to Roma in Serie A.

Maxi Lopez has netted a late penalty to earn Torino a dramatic 1-1 draw at home to Roma.

The first clear-cut chance of the match went to Torino as early as the fifth minute but Bruno Peres could only fire straight at Wojciech Szczesny in the Roma goal.

The visitors responded well, having plenty of possession of the ball without posing too much of a threat, with only Miralem Pjanic testing the goalkeeper with a couple of long-range efforts.

At the start of the second half, Szczesny did well to deny Peres from inside the penalty area, before up the other end, Radja Nainggolan almost found the bottom corner before Daniele Padelli made the save.

The game appeared to be heading for a goalless draw but seven minutes from time, Pjanic stepped up to curl a 25-yard free kick into the corner to move his side to the brink of victory.

However, deep into added-on time, Konstantinos Manolas committed a foul inside the penalty area, allowing Lopez the chance to fire past Szczesny from 12 yards.

Roma have remained in fourth spot in the Serie A table, with Torino staying in eighth position.
