Torino president Urbano Cairo has praised Russian club Zenit St. Petersburg but he believes that the Granata have the quality to beat them in the Europa League.

After eliminating Spanish team Athletic Club from the Round of 32, Torino have been drawn against Zenit, and Cairo says that the side is growing.

“Zenit are a great team but we have shown to have important qualities and compactness,” Cairo told Radio 24. “We must believe in each other right to the end to continue to do what we did last night, and also better.

“Concerns? They were also there when we were drawn with Athletic; I have seen great self-esteem [in] a squad that is growing.

“The two important objectives are Serie A and the Europa League, of course Serie A is always fundamental [and] also Europe certainly is.

“We said that we will focus on the Europa League, because we wanted to bring Torino back to a certain level in Europe.”
