Conclusion:
As we can see Toro - Ascoli will be kind of a derby in Serie B this leg considering the league positions and the points won by both teams. Torino is a slight favourite because the game will be played at Delle Alpi in front of the faithfull Granata fans, but Ascoli can easily get a point or all the three from this match because Toro has been in an awful form in the last three legs losing from Treviso, Albinoleffe and Verona.

Anyway... FORZA TORO!!!

 

[Romanticar]

Let's hear your predictions about this very important match ladies and gentleman. :smileani:

 

[MacoBoy]

This looks like it will be a tight match on standings it will be good if Toro can get bounce back with a win after the loss against Verona.

 

[Arianna]

Ascoli is a very good team, Bucchi is simply great...!!!!

 

[Arianna]

about the team...Mezzano have to stay out for 8 or 10 days because a little injury and Marinelli is banned for 2 games.

Tomorrow the team will play a friendly against one team of Promozione in Pinerolo

 

[Romanticar]

So the line-up will probably look like this:

------------Marazzina-----Franco------------
---------------------Pinga-------------------
Codrea------------Cagnaccio------------Gaby
Balza------Mantovani-----Peccarisi---Comotto
---------------------Berti-------------------

 

[Arianna]

So the line-up will probably look like this:

------------Marazzina-----Franco------------
---------------------Pinga-------------------
Codrea------------Cagnaccio------------Gaby
Balza------Mantovani-----Peccarisi---Comotto
---------------------Berti-------------------

io hope to see again Quagliarella and not Franco....also after what he missed against Verona ...my god:wallbang:
And...justice for Sorrentino

ps. there is something wrong in this team since Codrea alwayd play central in front of the defence...

 

[Romanticar]

I would also like to see Quagliarella in the starting lineup and Mantovani out at least for few games until he realises that he has to give 100% of himself on every match.

Well I'm not quite sure how are the midfielders lined up on the pitch this season.

 

[Sparta]

I want Cimminelli( called calabroleso, cimmiminchia, ecc.) n' Romero( called the killer, romerpeder,ecc..) in the starting line up of the toliet


FUORI I MAIALI GOBBI DAL TORINO

 

[Harry Potter]

Toro must win this one!

 

[Zangari_Italia]

Good luck!

 

[Romanticar]

Thanks, we are going to need it.

 

[Ambis]

I dont know much about both of these teams but since Torino plays at home im hoping they have the advantage and will win.

 

[Romanticar]

I hope you're right Ambis. :thmbup: Guys what are the plans of Rossi, will the new signings Pesaresi and Bruno be in the starting lineup?

 

[Ambis]

Torino 2-1 Ascoli :happy: :thmbup:

GOALS
Andre Pinga (pen) 37
Andre Pinga (pen) 90
Roberto Colacone (pen) 11

 

[Arianna]

...this game could end soething like 4-1 on the first half...about the second i dont know because i haven't watched it...
Marazzina is so unluky in this moment...the keeper saved twice on him...and there were so great shots...and saved once on Quagliarella,another great shot!
Btw,finally a victory again:shades:

 

[Deano]

A victory of penalties. Congrats!

 

[Romanticar]

FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :thmbup:

 

[Arianna]

and Pesaresi+Bruno layed the second half and according with my dad so good

 

[Calabrone]

Good win today. Could have won by a few more but job done anyway. Hope this is a turning point after the last 3 losses.


FORZA TORO

PS- Bravo Romanticar!! Good job
