The head coach of the Turin outfit has gone on to state his excitement of Juventus being able to qualify for the tournament and also analysed their oppositions.
Amidst all the doom and gloom that is surrounding the Italian Champions of late, the news of the Champions League draws has put a smile across the face of the manager of the club, Antonio Conte. He was ecstatic by the inclusion of the team into the premier competition of Europe and reiterated that the club deserved to be competing against the best of the best of European football.
Juve have been pitted in a group including the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786, Shakhtar Donetsk and Nordsjelland. This has been deemed as a tricky group by many, as Juve have made a comeback after quite a long time. There is inexperience within the squad and the players have not had great experience playing at the highest club competition in Europe.
While analysing their opponents in the upcoming tournament, Conte went on to explain his excitement at playing in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 at the Stamford Bridge. He also commended the Donetsk outfit and stated that they are a force to be reckoned with. During his interview, he was commented as saying:
“The games with Shakhtar and Nordsjelland will also be anything but simple. Ukrainian football is a reality in recent years, just look at their UEFA coefficient and the fact both Dinamo Kiev and Shakhtar were in Pot Two.”
He also commented on the club from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Denmark-c2884 and stated that they will pose a big physical threat to Juventus and stated that they would not be underestimating them, going into the group stages. Conte also remarked on their Scudetto victory, and he further went on to state:
“Last year we won in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Italy-c2926 after a triumphant run that saw us end the Serie A season unbeaten. It’ll be even more difficult in the Champions League, but the prize up for grabs is of the highest prestige and we are very motivated.”
Conte has been handed a ten month ban by the Italian sporting authorities for his alleged involvement in match fixing.
