Not much went on here! A draw suited both clubs!

Serie A Week 37 - 20/5/07 (14.00 UK)

Torino 0 - 0 Livorno
Stadio Olimpico

This dull stalemate proved enough to keep both teams in Serie A for another season.

Both sides were mid-table, but not entirely safe from relegation yet, as together on 39 points they were just three clear of the drop zone.

There were many familiar faces, as Cristiano Lucarelli, Diego De Ascentis, Nikola Lazetic, Matteo Melara and January signing Stefano Fiore all played for Toro. Lucarelli suffered an injury during the warm-up and made way for Paulinho.

The Brazilian stung Christian Abbiati's palms after just four minutes, then Fiore's slalom was cut short for a corner.

Fiore was determined to make a point and had another effort palmed round the post by Abbiati.

Roberto Muzzi tried to redirect a deflected Alessandro Rosina strike and substitute Elvis Abbruscato went close, but neither side ever really looked like scoring.

Torino: Abbiati; Comotto, Brevi, Franceschini, Balestri; De Ascentis, Barone, Ardito (Di Loreto 46); Rosina, Lazetic; Muzzi (Abbruscato 63)

Livorno: Manitta; Grandoni, Pavan, Galante, Pfertzel (Balleri 54), Morrone, A Filippini (Coppola 83), Passoni, Pasquale (Knezevic 68); Fiore; Paulinho
