il toro anounce pre season fixtures
Torino have today announced who they will play in their pre season friendly fixtures. First up is a match behind closed doors against the clubs reserves side, followed by a trip to Northern Ireland to play Cliftonville and the Crusaders. After that, they return to Italy to face Fiorentina, followed by a trip to France to play Olympique Marseille. The grounds and times of the matches are as follows.
Vs. Cliftonville @ Solitude stadium. 7:45 pm kickoff
Vs. Crusaders @ Seaview Stadium. 7:45 pm kickoff
Vs. Fiorentina @ Stadium Artemio Franchi. 8:45 pm kickoff
Vs. Olympique Marseille @ Stade Velodrome. 7 pm kickoff
Why are you traveling to France to play against Olympique? I would think that you'd like to bring the stronger squads to home so you get some money from match attendance?
Also, do you think that you could hold a full-strength Fiorentina or Marseille to a draw? Or are you just testing your tactics against stronger opponents?
