What: Inter v Torino
When: Sunday, February 1, 3:15* pm local time (6:15am pacific, 9:15am eastern)
Where: San Siro, Milan
How to Watch: Broadcast on FSC, MyP2P is still not providing links to Serie A games, so there is always Justin.tv, Rojadirecta, Ustream, and ATDHE.net. Somewhere in there should be a stream.
*All Serie A and B games are starting 15 minutes late in protest against the 1-year bans handed down to Daniele Mannini (Napoli) and Davide Possanzini (Breschia).
Inter welcome Torino to the San Siro this Sunday for an afternoon game, and hopefully, a good drubbing. The game will mark 100 appearances for Zlatan Ibrahimovic in an Inter jersey. Hopefully, he will get a few goals to celebrate. Inter come into the match in high confidence, which could be the kiss of death of us. It seems that whenever we do well, we follow it up with a stinker. Fingers-crossed that we have finally broken the cycle. Last year, Inter won this tie handily 4-0 (see below); this year, a similar result would be just what we need to really kick-start the second half of the season

Toro Comes to Town and Ibra Gets His Century
Catania 0 - 2 Inter: Three More Points Baby!
This game has helped to renew my faith in Inter as a team. After that horrific loss and last week’s near draw against Sampdoria, this is just the kind of showing that demonstrates why Inter is at the top of the table. Despite going down to 10 men midway through the first half, we kept our wits about us and brought home 3 points. Even better, with the clean sheet, we have the best goal differential again (the details matter). This win, taken with the other results of the day (grazie Udinese e Genoa), put Inter 6 points clear at the top. Highlights after the jump
Back On Top: Inter 1 - 0 Sampdoria
That was bloody. Still, we managed to take full points, and with these three very important points, find ourselves back at the top of the table - at least until Wednesday. The game saw 6 yellows (4 for them, 2 for us), 1 red (for Mourinho), a stupid punch (by Adriano), and a split head (Muntari). There were calls for penalties, injuries (2 a piece), and 3 gut-wrenching injury scares (JC, Zanetti, and Cambiasso). Probably the worst thing, though, was that Inter only managed to score one crumby goal. Even after Mazzarri was forced to take off his last defender, Inter could not score on a squad comprised almost entirely of midfielders. Very disappointing. Highlights after the jump
