Torino seems to be under a real spell. For over a month and a half the team has won three consecutive victories, a result not seen for seven years, and has shown that it can score three goals in two consecutive games. After the 3-2 victory against Monza, president UrbanoCairo chose to remain silent, avoiding making statements that could ruin the positive atmosphere that has been created around the club.
Coach IgnazioAbate expressed his satisfaction with the bond that is forming between the team and the fans. “This square is fantastic and I've said that since the first day I arrived,” he said, recalling having played there in the past. “People give us emotions and we don't yet know everything they can give us”. The coach underlined the importance of collective feeling, defining the fans' passion as "fuel" essential to overcome difficulties on the pitch. “Football without people has no value,” he added, highlighting how the stadium is an engine that pushes the team to give its best.
Despite the positive atmosphere, the tension with the owners has not disappeared. On Friday, before the start of the next match, the chants against President Cairo were heard loud and clear, demonstrating that the protest has not faded away. However, the new energy that is spreading between players and fans seems to have rekindled the relationship, transforming the Olimpico Grande Torino stadium into a real point of reference for the community.
With the team approaching a new derby against Juventus, Torino is ready to exploit this synergy. If the "fuel" of the fans continues to fuel the performances on the pitch, the club could consolidate its position in the table and maintain the title race. The next match will be a crucial opportunity to see if the positive energy will translate into a winning result.
