Torino president Cairo frustrated with ref after Fiorentina draw

Torino president Urbano Cairo insists they deserved more from yesterday's 0-0 draw with Fiorentina.

Cairo insists the match officials treated them unfairly on the day.

He told TMW: "It's not the first... It's useless to comment now, we've seen everything.

"Zapata he had incredible treatment, fouls one after the other, and then that's a goal that either you don't concede or you don't get called back: he was one step away, but I don't want to talk about referees any more. They took away a lot of points from us."

On the match, he said: "We deserved to be ahead at half-time, we also created a couple of scoring opportunities when we were inferior. We are a compact team, everyone gave their all. I went down between the first and second half and the coach gave the boys a great message. Buongiorno came back well, Djidji also had an excellent match and Masina, who was initially criticised, is instead having great games. Adam is a good player and a great man in the dressing room."
