Following the 0-0 draw away against an in-form Siena side, Torino president Urbano Cairo was not disappointed but happily accepted the result.

"It was the right result," he said after the match, "it was not a very eventful game. We played a very good first half, creating some good chances and they did the same. That's why I think the draw is the right result. Also, today the coach had to play with a modified 4-4-2 system, considering the absences of [Gianluca] Comotto and [Aimo] Diana."

Concerning the situation of former Inter striker Alvaro Recoba, who was seen as a Messiah when he arrived last summer but isn't getting much space to play, he said: "Recoba is not a problem, he's an important resource for us and he will certainly get his chances.

"However, we need to think about the team's good instead of the individual players' needs."

Torino are currently in 13th place with 25 points, 4 points above the relegation zone.
