Juventus coach Andrea Pirlo presents the match against Genoa scheduled for tomorrow at 6 pm in Marassi on Juventus TV.
A personal memory of Paolo Rossi?
“I have not had the luck to know him very well on a personal level, only occasionally in passing. But the indelible memory of the ’82 World Cup remains. I was very young, I don’t remember them but the images are history. He was our hero and we will never forget him ”.
We all still have the Camp Nou evening in mind. What is left of the game against Barcelona?
“If we still have it in mind, let’s cancel it because we need to turn the page and give it continuity. It must not have been just this type of match because it was against Barcelona, we must continue with this desire and this rhythm. Now there is the championship and that is why we have to do better in these four games ”.
Is your Juve a little more aware after Barcelona?
“These games give you great awareness of improvements. He can be a huge confidence boost for this final match before the break. If we do not have this desire and this determination, we go against unpleasant surprises. We are focused to play great games. “
What game do you expect against Genoa?
“As difficult as any other match when you go to such an important stadium. They are good at defending and restarting because they have fast, physically strong players. We will have to be very good and focused on playing our game.
How is the team physically? Do you have a rotation in mind?
“They are all fine, they have all recovered. They are all available, including Morata, who fortunately had a day of disqualification removed ”.
What comes to mind if you think of Marassi?
“It is an English stadium where I have always liked to play, I also scored a beautiful and important goal with the Juventus shirt. That is perhaps the quickest memory that comes to mind. “
He has often talked about the importance of midfielder insertions. How is McKennie adjusting to the team?
“Well, little by little he also begins to know Italian better and therefore can express himself better with the boys. He is a player with many races and enthusiasm, he has a wide room for improvement but inclusion is undoubtedly one of his main qualities. He is improving but he can do even better ”.
Square eight assists and super performance. Your rating of the player?
“For us it is as important as for Juventus of yesteryear. He knows how to do both the defensive and offensive phases, although I reproach him many times for lacking concentration. There he has to improve because he does not have to rest on the good things but rather he has to be in the game for 90 minutes ”.
Juve is the team that has suffered the fewest shots on goal in the first 5 European championships. How is your defense growing?
“The desire to advance is growing, so when you do, even opposing teams have less chance of playing on your field. It must be in our head to be able to take the opposite half of the field trying to always have an offensive pressure. The defensive phase must also be in our zone or in the middle of the field, always aggressive and never passive. And in this we are growing ”.
