Juventus might have grabbed an away goal at Anfield last week but the defeat to Liverpool hurt more than many of us expected. Today, Fabio Capello and his players have been speaking about why the Reds will be dangerous in Turin.
Mauro Camoranesi on losing his head
"At Anfield I shouted at the rest of the lads. It was the first time I've completely lost my head in a game. I lost my head and we lost the game. I think the winner of this tie will win the Champions League."
Emerson on how much Anfield defeat hurt
"That defeat damaged our pride very deeply. Liverpool caused us a crisis. I couldn't sleep that night because in the bus back from the stadium there was tension in the air and all the boys were pointing the finger of blame at each other."
Fabio Capello on tactics
"Obviously we need a goal but we haven't to be in a panic to get it. Our defence is quick enough but we need to watch out for their counter-attacks. The important thing will be to get a grip of the game in midfield."
Alessandro Del Piero on Liverpool's 'weak' points
"One of their weak points could be our quick passing on the ground, given that they are very good in the air but we have to watch out for the breaks because they can come at you very quickly. In the last round we needed to score twice against Real Madrid to go through and we did it. This time one could be enough. They have a good scoring record away from home though."
Fabio Capello on Liverpool's defence
"Liverpool are an excellent squad that defends with a great deal of attention. They are a really good and strong team. Unfortunately, we are a bit short on height at the moment and they are really dangerous on free kicks."
Pavel Nedved on why Juve won't underestimate the Reds
"The first leg match helped us learn an important thing, we have not to sleep in the first part of the match. We must try to score and at the same time be attentive on defence. I've seem them against Manchester City, they lost, it's true, but they suffered the score only at the end of match."
p/s: entah aaa... aku rase macam susah untuk Liverpool menang kat Turin nanti lebih-lebih lagi dengan ketiadaan skipper, Steven Gerrard. apapon, Liverpool akan bergantung kepada Xabi Alonso selaku artitek yang akan melakar pelan serangan.
oh ye, aku harap unsung hero yang baru, iaitu Luis Garcia, pemain yang memakai jersi no 10 akan menjadi 'man of the match' di Turin malam tu nanti. aku juga harap Igor Biscan dan Arne Riise juga akan memberikan komitmen 100% untuk Liverpool.
4 orang ni la yang aku rase kemungkinan besar boleh menyumbangkan gol dan mengubah situasi malam tu nanti. aku rase Liverpool 1 - Juventus 1 kat Turin nanti. Liverpool mara ke separuh akhir dengan agregat 3-2.
