Igor Tudor pointed out several flaws in Juventus after their 1-0 defeat to Real Madrid in the match corresponding to the third round of the Champions League group stage. The Turin team will be Sporting’s next opponent in the prestigious competition - where the Lions triumphed against Marseille.
"The boys are very disappointed", Igor Tudor began, describing the mood in his locker room after the defeat to Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabéu. It was their first loss in the competition, after two draws in the opening rounds.
The Juventus coach continued: "Everyone must be a leader. From that perspective, we’re still not at the level I’d like to see. The Juventus shirt carries a lot of weight and we need to improve in that aspect. We’ve built a new team and the presence of champions, who are usually in the locker room, is somewhat missed."
"This team has its strengths and weaknesses. We have to believe, because this is the right path. What didn’t please me? We’re lacking a bit of everything. However, I leave with confidence, although slightly irritated by the defeat," concluded Igor Tudor, whose Juventus is in 25th place in the Champions League group stage.
It’s worth remembering that Sporting and Juventus will meet in the fourth round of the Champions League. The Lions will travel to Turin on November 4th, but before that, they will still play Tondela in the league and Alverca twice (League Cup and championship).
