Torino 0-0 Club Brugge

Club Brugge had goalkeeper Mathew Ryan to thank for stonewalling Torino in a goalless draw that puts the Belgians on the brink of reaching the Europa League's knockout round.The Australian goalkeeper was in fine form at the Stadio Olimpico and Torino striker Josef Martinez endured an especially frustrating night while leading the Italians' frontline.Club are three points ahead of final-day opponents HJK Helsinki and boast a superior goal difference meaning their progression from Group B should be a formality.Only a Helsinki victory in Brugge on matchday six would eliminate Torino, who next visit FC Copenhagen, from the competition.Torino started much the brighter and thrice went close to scoring inside the opening 15 minutes.First, Martinez saw his shot caught by Ryan, and Emiliano Moretti missed the mark with a header after Amauri had nodded over the bar from close range.Club hit back on 21 minutes as Nicolas Castillo forced Daniele Padelli into a dramatic save but the hosts were soon back down the other end to threaten Ryan with a rasping drive from Martinez.Matteo Darmian fizzed the ball just past a post and, with five minutes remaining before the break, Omar El Kaddouri got Ryan working again with a swerving effort from distance.The Belgians enjoyed the last chance of the first half, but Victor Vazquez's radar malfunctioned when he took aim from the right flank.Padelli was soon handling the ball from Brandon Mechele's header when play resumed and El Kaddouri shortly streaked back up the pitch to force a parry from Ryan.The Australia stopper repelled Martinez's header as the game opened up heading into the final half-hour and he had to look rather lively to save from midfielder Marco Benassi.Torino pushed back and were unlucky in the 82nd minute as Pontus Jansson glanced Cesare Bovo's delivery from a corner just wide of the mark.With time ticking away the Italians raided further forward and, after Darmian blasted past a post, Ryan pulled off another impressive save to repel Marcelo Larrondo's header.ends
