6:58pm, 16 September 2025Football

Hupu September 15th Juventus will face Dortmund at home in the first phase of the Champions League. Before the game, Juventus coach Tudor attended the press conference.

What kind of team is Dortmund?

"They are a very strong team, not only in Germany, but also in Europe. The previous match was just a friendly match, not worth mentioning, but now it is a completely different, very serious and formal game. It's wonderful to play such a high-level game at our home court, and we can't wait to start."

What do you think of Ilditz and del Piero?

"The comparison is made by your media. He doesn't think about Del Piero when he brushes his teeth every day. He is just playing football, you are making these comparisons. This child should let his life and growth be good, and don't say it every day. He performs well. As for the starter? Let's take a look."

How far can Juventus go in the Champions League?

"I never think about how far I can go. It's a high-level team and a tough game. We have to play great against Dortmund, try our best to see where to hit them."

How proud are you of the support of the entire team?

"I don't value words because Locatelli is sitting next to me and just said this (laugh). Everything will be easier when you win, everyone has a good relationship, but I also have to make choices and do something unpleasant. The coaching job is difficult, but I am lucky to have a group of good guys under my command who are willing to work hard for the team, which has been a united team in history, focused and serious."

What do you think of last week's Italian national derby?

"We are playing against the team with the strongest Serie A lineup, and I think they are even stronger than Napoli. We won the game without playing at the best and having some minor problems. Although the team did not play at the highest level to win the game, I like this victory."

You will usher in your first Champions League match after coaching Juventus...

"I have no personal emotions. This is an event that all players like. Once they advance, the game will become more different. It is a very wonderful and charming event, but our preparation method will be the same as other games. According to my experience, all players will forget about fatigue in the Champions League... Everyone's goal is to play the Champions League, which is a privilege."

How are the situations of Concesen, Bremer and Kabar?

"I don't know because we haven't trained yet. I have to talk to them, make choices after the evaluation, and see what's going on tomorrow morning." Will there be rotations? Will it change the formation?

"The playing style will be different because the game level is higher. Other leagues are simpler than Italy in tactical terms, but everyone has different styles of playing football, and the way of playing football is also different. The choice needs to be read again, I cannot disclose it now."

Do you think you are ready to welcome the Champions League? How do you view the rotation issue?

"I can't make long-term plans, but to evaluate the status and see who can play. Observe what's happening on the court, observe the individual status and characteristics of the players. I'm ready to be a coach and do my best to do my job. The preparation for tomorrow's game is the same as when I was against Inter."

Regarding Saturday's performance...

"We can do better, but that doesn't mean we have made a mistake. We have prepared in the best way, and there is no difference between preparation and other games in terms of preparation and motivation."

Do you prefer 1-0 or 4-3?

"I said when I was coaching in Verona that I prefer 4-3 over 1-0, which was said three years ago. My philosophy is: Winning first, followed by as many goals as possible, because I like offensive football and actively attack, but it also depends on the characteristics of the players. The goal is to win, and if I can choose, I prefer 3-0."

Are you satisfied with the substitute goal?

"I like this very much because it shows the concentration of the entire team. We talked in the locker room that there is no such thing as a ‘substitute’ in football now. Substitution is not a temporary slap in the head, but a plan in advance and thinking about this matter an hour in advance."

What is the situation in Cambiaso? How did you spend these weeks?

"He is very good, he trains well, and can't wait to return. He also completed a good training yesterday. He is important to us, we miss him very much, he can improve the overall quality and level of the team. The same is true for Concesan. Both players were absent against Inter Milan, and their return will significantly improve our level."
