The exultation of the Bull (Ansa)

17 September 2021 In anticipation of the fourth matchday of Serie A, Torino's second consecutive league victory, the first away match.

At the 'Mapei Stadium' in Reggio Emilia, Juric's team beat Sassuolo with a 1-0 signed by Pjaca in the final which is even close to the guests.

A challenge played right from the start at a very high pace, thanks above all to the intensity fielded by Turin.



The grenades, remotely controlled by Juric on the sidelines, take a big risk on the post hit at 7 'by Frattesi but then take the ball in hand and dominate far and wide. There are two woods of the guests, first with Brekalo and then with Praet but not only: Sanabria, Turin's offensive reference still forced to do without Belotti, is stopped on a couple of occasions a few centimeters from the net, first with Ferrari on a little 'bad' lob and then from Maxime Lopez on the header on the developments of a corner. Advice puts his effort in blocking the way to a Bremer in offensive projection and the two teams go to the break goalless despite a crackling first fraction.



The second half is still of the garnet brand with Torino which, after a few minutes, touches the advantage again with Brekalo. Sassuolo struggles to get out with the dribble cleanly, few i


headaches created in Milinkovic-Savic and in the middle of the second half Toro builds another great scoring opportunity: Brekalo launches Lukic into the open field, who decides to skip Consigli but gets too wide and sends on the outside of the net. Dionisi revolutionizes the attacking front with Scamacca and Traorè, but the changes that work are those of Juric: the substitutes Ansaldi and Mandragora pack the action for Pjaca, who opens the pot and places in the far corner for the deserved 1-0 all '83'. In the final, it's up to Milinkovic-Savic to avoid the insult, with a feline flicker on Ferrari's head: after 5 'of recovery, Torino celebrates and goes to 6, Sassuolo remains at 4 points.
