IT'S A PROUDLESS TORINO, VENEZIA CONQUERS DRAWING WITHOUT HARD WORK

In advantage after 11 minutes thanks to a gift by goalkeeper Gregori, Sandreani's team looks without will and ideas, never finding the right charge to close the match.
Opponents react late and find 1-1 thanks to a fit penalty scored by Polesel.
Left alone, Ferrante stops his good sequence.

Sandreani: "Not a good match, no doubt. No movement, a few chances for ball's owner. Anyway we have had a hard week, with a lot of injuryed players.
We played only first period."




TORINO-VENEZIA 1-1 Ferrante stopped, Polesel draws on penalty.
Disapproved Sandreani's team, insults to Calleri

Gregori's owngoal is not enough for granatas




Toro is timorous again

Gregori's owngoal turns off granatas, reached in the final on penalty

Mercuri gets conceited
Lombardini disappoints

Florijancic: "We kept the goal in the final, on penalty again. But the team played bad. We should have attacked more"
Ferrante: "May this match be a lesson for us. [...] We need to be more convinced"
Maltagliati: "We played very bad"




Losing after an owngoal caused by Florijancic, Venezia draws in the final on penalty

Ferrante turned off, Torino too

Sandreani's team appeared not concentrated

A masked Toro, unrecognizable if compared to last, brilliant games [...] As Sandreani feared, Toro has not fronted the match with the right concentration.
Without proper passages, also Ferrante stopped.
