Paolo VanoliTorino coach, spoke in a press conference on the eve of the match against Juventus, his second derby on the Granata bench: “With matches like this, you manage the moments and understand how you get to the various derbies. We interpreted it well against Parma , we just lacked the three points. These matches are played with the mentality of winning, I want to pass that on to the boys.”
Without Vlahovic and Conceicao what changes?
“I’m not interested in looking at them. The derby has its value, it’s important: we find a strong Juve, even without the two of them they have important values on the bench. We must learn from the first leg of the derby as a lesson, we are lucky enough to play with our team public and it must be another match not only on an organizational level, but also with heart and passion.”
It can be the turning point challenge?
“Absolutely yes. For a month now I have seen the team getting closer to my character and my hunger to do something important. These are matches that can provide a turning point: not only the result is important, but also the performance.”
Has the team approached the fans’ feelings towards the derby?
“I think so, it was demonstrated by the fans at the end of the match against Parma who called the boys under the curve to make them understand the importance of the derby. I for one have always tried to unite and get closer despite what is happening. these six months, our skill has been to command a boat during months in which many things have happened. The company must understand the importance of this market”
