The Rossoblu's poor start to the season has led to the sacking of Domenico Tedesco, who failed to score in three of the first four matches. Artem Dovbyk was still out of action, but Riccardo Orsolini and Oussama El Azzouzi returned to the bench for the match against Torino. Toro, who also lost three of the first four rounds, managed to beat Fiorentina but were missing key players Che Adams, Pietro Pellegri, and Franco Israel, with Cesare Casadei on the road to recovery.
The first goal of the Palladino era was scored by Federico Bernardeschi, who finished off from 12 yards on the Juan Miranda cross after Nicolò Cambiaghi had robbed Daniel Bragança in midfield. However, Torino's pressure eventually paid off when Lorenzo De Silvestri gave it away in midfield, and Sandro Kulenovic's low drive squirmed through the weak hands of Skorupski, cancelling out Bernardeschi's opener.
The match ended 1-1, with Bologna's poor start to the season ultimately costing Domenico Tedesco his job. The club will now look to appoint a new manager to turn their season around.
