In the match against Hellas Verona, Toro found his first goal from outside the box this season thanks to Miranchuk
2023 for Taurus has not started in the best way. The grenades in the first match of the new year, where they faced Hellas Verona within the friendly walls of the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino, only got 1 point. On the plus side that Ivan Juric can draw from the match against his former team there is the fact that the grenade, after a very long time, thanks to Aleksey Miranchuk they returned to score from outside the box, to be more precise after more than a year. In fact, the last goal scored by Toro from outside the penalty area dates back to November 22, 2021. On that occasion it was Josip who unlocked the match Break it, thanks to a deadly right-footed shot from outside the area. Then nothing more. Juric thought about explaining why Toro lacked shots from outside the area some time ago when, without beating around the bush, he declared: “We don’t have good shooters.” Miranchuk in the match against the team led by the pair Zaffaroni-Bocchetti has shown that the words of the Croatian coach do not correspond to reality and that he can be poisonous even from outside the area thanks to his excellent left foot.
Toro were the only team in Serie A with zero goals from outside the area
A fact that cannot fail to be underlined is the one that reports that the grenades, before Miranchuk’s goal against Hellas Verona, were the only team in the whole of Serie A that in the current season had not yet managed to score from outside the area. However, it must also be specified that the grenades have tried on very few occasions to score from outside the penalty area. Now the hope is that the Russian playmaker’s goal won’t remain an isolated case throughout the championship. Maybe already in the important match against Salernitana you will see a more aggressive Bull trying to make more shots from outside the box. What is certain is that Rodriguez and his companions will not be able to miss the match against the Campania players.
