Derby To Dictate Torino's Season
1st of December, Turin - Turin is in the derby mood as the Serie A derby returns after many years out. And the importance of the game is huge with both team being in top of the league with two points apart.

Tanel Tursk ban ended just on Saturday so he may return to the bench of Torino after a month out with FIFA ban. He is ready for the big one and stated it's the most important game of his Torino career so far.
"I can feel the excitement. I'm having shivers already talking about it at the moment. We want to win this one for sure. It's matter of pride. With this game, we'll see who is the Turin no. 1 for years to come," told Tursk.
"Not only is this an improtant derby, but it also will set our sights on future of this season. Win this and I publically announce us to be in race for the title. Otherwise we'll want to get a Champions League place."
Torino is rather fit, but only question is who'll replace Simone Barone with broken leg. So far Lionel Mathis and young prodigee Silva have shared the starts, but it's unclear who Tursk is to pick for this match.
"My decision will be made tomorrow after I see in the final training who is more determined," he told on press-conference.
Meanwhile Torino is on the verge of signing 19-year old Argentinan future hope Alejandro Ramirez from San Lorenzo. |
