Torino left the San Paolo with a well-deserved draw thanks to substitute Gianluca Sansone’s last minute equaliser.

That goal cancelled out Edinson Cavani’s early strike on his comeback from injury as the Vesuviani disappointed for much of the contest.

‘El Matador’ struck with a predatory finish after Marek Hamsik’s shot was parried into his path and he made no mistake from close range to put his side ahead.

Morgan De Sanctis was busy at the other end to deny Rolando Bianchi’s header and an Alessandro Sgrigna effort.

However, they grabbed the goal that they merited in injury time when a horrendous back pass from Salvatore Aronica was latched on to by Sansone who calmly rounded De Sanctis and rolled into a gaping goal.

With that finish, Toro remain unbeaten on the road this season while Napoli’s Scudetto challenge continues to falter.
