Serie A Wrap: Inspired Immobile stars for Torino

The 24-year-old striker netted the first treble of his career to end Torino's four-match losing streak and keep Livorno very much in danger of relegation to the second tier.

Immobile opened the scoring after 25 minutes when he flicked home Cesare Bovo's near-post free-kick, and he doubled the lead with a scuffed half-volley on the hour mark following neat link-up play with Omar El Kaddouri.

Rudi Garcia's side were always in control and they sealed the points three minutes before half-time, attacker Mattia Destro coolly slotting home from Brazilian midfielder Rodrigo Taddei's expertly placed throughball.
