Speaking on the eve of the Italian derby, mister Thiago Motta he also spoke about the gap with Inter. These are the statements on the matter from the Juventus coach:
Has the gap with Inter narrowed?
“I don’t think so. The facts say so. It’s objective that the favorites in the championship are Napoli and Inter. Tomorrow we have to face Inter with concentration and courage.”
Why isn’t his past at Inter having an impact?
“I played for Inter, Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, Genoa and PSG, where not only on a sporting level, but also on a human level, I tried to do the right things without having any interests, nothing behind to hide. It was always me, in the for better or for worse, the way I am. I have always behaved well with people, wherever I go as an ex I am treated well when one behaves in the right way…”
How are you experiencing the match?
“I live it very well, because I live it like the next match. As always we go to the field at 200%. There isn’t a match in which we don’t go on the field in this way. You can win and you can lose, but by trying to get the best result. By working hard to get to these matches by doing our job well.”
Where can Inter take the match from a playing point of view?
“It’s a team that plays very good football, which has put many teams in difficulty on the counterattacks. It’s a very dangerous team, they regroup, especially when a team goes to attack they have a good defensive phase on recovery, they’re very fast going forward and we have to be very careful.”
