The words of Thiago Motta

These are the statements of Juventus coach Thiago Motta, at the microphones of "Sky Sport", after the narrow success against Lazio, thanks to an own goal by Mario Gila in the final minutes of the match.

"I am always happy when we win, becauseè we brought our ideas to the field and reaped the fruits of hard work. Today we had great balance in both the defensive and offensive phases. It's clear that with Lazio in 10 we raised our center of gravity and created more danger, but we still have to improve. Overall, however, è an important and deserved victory. Now we leave this match behind and think about the Champions match against Stuttgart, a team that is playing very, very well, although today they lost" began the coach of the bianconeri.

"We will continue to work on everything and I liked many things. It was not easy to maintain patience against a team that è defended very well even with numerical inferiority. In the first half we were a bit frantic, then with the enthusiasm and the push of our public we managed to do better and the goal è arrived at the right time" added the former Bologna.

"Cambiaso è a player who is becoming very important both here and in the national team, playing as a fifth, fullback or high outside. He's a complete player who still has a lot of room for improvement. He has to pay attention to his physique, he has to be balanced mentally and physically because he is playing so much. He's a great professional, he can still grow a lot in the defensive phase. He is going through a very good period of form" Thiago Motta commented.
