Reggina and Torino shared the spoils at the Stadio Oreste Granillio in Calabria and both coaches are rueing missed opportunities...
Torino got off to a flying start in Serie A as they defeated Lecce 3-0, but they were forced to share the spoils with Reggina after a Marco DiLoreto own goal levelled the scores at the end of the first half.
Coach Gianni De Biasi was relatively pleased with his side's performance, but was not particularly impressed with his team's finishing: "Reggina started off vehemently, but it’s a shame we couldn't seal the victory when we had the chance," he lamented.
Summer signing and former Reggina striker Rolando Bianchi scored in the 3-0 win over Lecce two weeks ago, but was fairly anonymous against his former club.
"Rolando Bianchi needs time to find his form," concluded the tactician, discussing the former Manchester City player's poor performance.
De Biasi was not the only one who believes his team should have taken more of their chances, as Reggina manager Nevio Orlandi stated his side could have done better as well.
Deserving
"It wasn’t easy to come back against Torino, but at the end of the day we deserved more than a point," claimed Orlandi after a match where both goalkeepers, Torino's Matteo Sereni and Reggina's Andrea Campagnolo, performed admirably for their respective sides.
"There is everything we need to do well this season," explained Orlandi, who was hired as Renzo Ulvieri's replacement in March of last season and led Reggina to Serie A salvation.
This season, though, Reggina are currently near the bottom of the table, having picked up just one point from their first two matches.
