Torino coach Marco Giampaolo insists he’s never doubted Armando Izzo’s qualities and reveals why he was not sacked despite sitting at the bottom of the table before today’s 3-0 win at Parma.
The Granata pulled off a crucial 3-0 away win at Parma moving just above the relegation zone.
“We’ve overcame some difficulties, we could have handled the winning position in a better way, but we closed the game in the final minutes,” Giampaolo told Sky Sport.
Armando Izzo scored his second goal in a row.
“I’ve never doubted the qualities of single footballers. The guys are committed, Izzo scored a great goal. I can recognise the players’ attitude. We must be coherent and follow the players’ qualities.
“I talk to [Davide] Vagnati and the President every day. I’ve always felt trusted, I never had the feeling they didn’t have confidence in what I was doing. Maybe they noticed the players are attached to my principles, otherwise they would have replaced me.”
