Torino lost the match against Frosinone again, with a 2-0 result which consolidated the second consecutive defeat of the Granata team after the defeat against Como. The result, although close, was considered disappointing by coach Ivan Abate, who highlighted that Frosinone's players seemed more motivated and active than the Granata team, despite having only had two days of preparation compared to Torino's four.
According to expected goals data, Torino have managed just 0.51 goals per game, a figure that indicates the club's difficulty in creating dangerous chances. However, Abate tried to find positive aspects in the performance, underlining that the team started well in the first half and that the players showed personality and desire to play. However, he admitted that the team lost momentum in the second half, letting themselves be dragged down by the opponent's inertia and failing to maintain balance, especially in transitions and second balls.
The coach also expressed the need to grow in both the offensive and defensive phases, stating that Torino must learn to transform episodes into advantages for their team. “We need to be more involved in the dirt and in the moments of the match,” he said, indicating that the club must improve its ability to control the game and exploit opportunities.
Torino will have to face Lecce on Saturday, before the international break, with the aim of returning to the left side of the table. The result against Frosinone highlighted the need for a victory against a team that has suffered three consecutive defeats. The club hopes to regain its confidence and demonstrate that it can compete with top-level teams.
