 Big night - Torino welcomes Inter!
10th of February, Turin - Serie A's highlight of the weekend is meeting between two of the current favourites for the league win, Torino and Inter.
 Torino is looking at Abbruscato once more
Two teams will meet in the evening match today and it's set to be a thriller already as both teams are in unstopable form lately and Torino has got a seven point advantage over the Nerazzurri who has a game in hand though.
Torino has solved the injury problems and only Alessandro Rosina and Simone Barone have to be only guys on sidelines for Tanel Tursk side.
"We've solved our problems, but Barone and Rosina are irreplacable for team like ours and we've missed them a lot in past weeks. Eventhough Barone we've missed for most of the season. Their injuries motivate other players to give extra effort though and I'm pleased with that. It's a great team we have in here," told Tursk whose side is surprisingly leading the Scudetto race.
"At the start of the season we were predicted 6th. That wasn't what I was excepting, I wanted Champions League place. But my players have shocked me too. Such determination, united team efforts constantly all reminds me of my decade in Romania," he praised his players after leading the table with 21 games gone.
"I think tomorrow will be a tough and even match with both teams trying to cancel out eachothers star players. We've always had interesting matches with Inter, I make my all that it wouldn't change tomorrow. Eventhough the results are more important in such games and if we need to close them down and play boring to get a victory, I will not hesitate to do it," he stated to the media in a press conference.
Their last meeting in the first game of the season ended with a 1:1 draw with Torino's goal coming from Simone Barone. Today there is no Barone and Torino is hoping for marksman Elvis Abbruscato to beat his main contender for top scorer title David Villa with more goals. |
