Juventus, Thiago Motta praises the strength of the group

Thusì Juventus coach Thiago Motta, after the second success of two Champions League matches: “È the victory of the group, we played two good games against two good teams: è still early, forò, to know what will be our path”.

"In the first half we è lacked a bit of conviction – explains the coach after the 3-2 win in Leipzig that brings the Bianconeri to full points – and in the second half we did better, albeit in 10: there was a feeling that we could hurt, which is why we kept going forward despite the numerical inferiority".

There'è a bit of apprehension for Bremer and Nico Gonzalez, who came out in the first minutes of the game with a knee problem and a muscle discomfort, respectively: "The doctor still has to evaluate them, we hope they are not serious stops because theyé are two important players, like all my boys" concludes Thiago Motta.

Dusan Vlahovic shines again in Leipzig, the Juventus striker finds another double after the one in Marassi against Genoa. "I am delighted for the team, we played almost 45 minutes with a man down but we showed that we are becoming a team – the Serbian’s words after the 3-2 victory against the Germans – and we fought, in the end we deserved: it fits us to suffer, we were tired but we never gave up".

And among the best on the field is Nicolò Fagioli: “È true, maybe è it was one of my best performances, and I am working hard after going through a difficult period because of me – says the midfielder to Prime microphones – and tonight è it was a heartfelt match: at halftime the coach told us to believe and then those five minutes slaughtered us (red to Di Gregorio and 2-1 on a penalty scored by Sesko, ed), but Vlahovic scored two great goals and Conceicao scored a wonderful goal".

Pulling out the joker è was Francisco Conceicao right in the final: “&Everything happened between penalties and expulsions, now we go on like thisì and the coach left me free to do what I wanted, doing forò both phases of the game" concludes the Portuguese, match-winner at the Red Bull Arena.
