Torino Chairman Urbano Cairo on
Wednesday accused Lazio striker Ciro Immobile of diving to get
the penalty he then missed to enable the Granata to secure a
goalless draw and remain in Serie A at the expense of Benevento.
"Everyone has to play all-out but when I see a player as good as
Immobile throwing himself to the ground and asking for a
penalty, that is not right," Cairo told Radio 24.
Cairo and Immobile exchanged words over the incident after
Tuesday night's match.
But Cairo said he was fond of Immobile from the striker's time
in Turin and voiced the hope he would score many goals at the
European championships, perhaps with Torino forward Andrea 'The
Rooster' Belotti.
