Toro, four-man defense on tilt: caught 3 goals for the first time

Per la prima volta da quando Vanoli gioca a 4 dietro, sono stati presi 3 gol. Difesa in tilt anche per errori individuali

Since Torino changed its module from 3-5-2 to 4-2-3-1, the results have improved and the defense has become more solid. But in the game against Bologna, 3 goals were conceded. Defense on the blink mainly due to individual mistakes. On Ndoye’s goal, Coco was burned at speed and could have done better. Then there was Casadei’s penalty foul on a defensive closeout gone wrong. Finally, Biraghi’s resounding own goal in the 90′ that doomed the Granata. The 4-man defense did not fully convince this time, although individual mistakes made the difference.

Per la prima volta da quando si gioca a 4

For the first time since playing 4 at the back, 3 goals were taken. In fact, it had never happened before with the 4-2-3-1 on the pitch. Udinese-Torino 2-2, Torino-Parma 0-0, Torino-Juventus 1-1, Fiorentina-Torino 1-1, Torino-Cagliari 2-0, Atalanta-Torino 1-1 and Torino-Genoa 1-1. 6 goals conceded in 7 matches. 1 win and 6 draws. While against Bologna 3 goals conceded, defeat and 0 points. The hope is that it was a bad night, also conditioned by the field conditions and unfavorable episodes. From the details that make the difference.

La fotocopia Cagliari

The last time Torino had conceded 3 goals? Cagliari-Torino 3-2. A photocopy match. Cagliari ahead at 38′ through Viola. Sanabria equalizer at 41′. 1-1 the score at the end of the first half. Then the granata lead with Linetty at 55′. Palomino ties the score at 74′. Finally, Coco’s own goal at 78′. There were no differences with the Dall’Ara match. Toro proactive and creating chances, but punished by carelessness in defense. Losing with these own goals is not possible. It can happen, but Vanoli has work to do on this aspect, more mental than anything else.
