Carpi stun Torino to claim first Serie A win

Coming into the game with only two points to their account, Carpi were desperate for their first win in Italy's top flight and appointed Beppe Sannino as their new coach in midweek after sacking Fabrizio Castori.

The hosts found the breakthrough 10 minutes after the restart when Gabriel Silva's drive struck the near post and came back off Torino goalkeeper Daniele Padelli's shoulder for an own goal.

Matos doubled the hosts' lead in the 72nd minute when he nodded Marco Borriello's cross past Padelli and although Maxi Lopez reduced arrears from the penalty spot three minutes later, Carpi held on to claim their a first win in Serie A.

It moved them off the foot of the table, leaving Verona as the only top flight team without a win after six games.

Torino's strong start to the campaign had seen them move up to third place at only two points adrift of leaders Fiorentina.

But Giampiero Ventura's men are set to tumble down the standings after the remainder of the weekend's fixtures following a disappointing display at the Alberto Braglia stadium in Modena -- which is where Carpi are forced to play home games as their ground does not meet Serie A requirements. 

Verona face Chievo away in the city derby in Saturday's late game.
