The Granata are currently in second place, awaiting Fiorentina’s trip to Inter this evening, and for once look down on their city rivals.

“This success allows us to go eight points clear of Juventus,” Ventura said of their 2-1 win over Palermo.

“We dominated the match, but then there were some bizarre decisions from the referee. We never ran a risk, even after the red cards, apart from Struna hitting the crossbar at the end.

“Palermo were foaming at the mouth, but we were stronger even down to nine men.

“Torino are finding success focusing on young Italian talent, unlike Palermo who have many foreigners in their squad.”

Marco Benassi marked the occasion with a spectacular Marco van Basten-style volley.

“It was indescribable!” grinned the Coach.
