Football, Spalletti: ‘Juve is its own worst enemy, that’s how you lose games’

Milan, 21 February (LaPresse) – ‘In this case, we are our own opponents. If we get our heads and our technique right, we’ll be ready to play. If this is the level we’re at, we can’t expect to get any results.’ Juventus coach Luciano Spalletti commented bitterly to DAZN on the defeat against Como in the league, already looking ahead to the next direct clash with Roma for a place in the Champions League. ‘The performance was affected by the first goal, because you try to make the game with individual pressure, but they run rings around you with their passing and quality. That makes everything more difficult. Then we’ve conceded 13 times from the first shot on goal, so it’s clear there are difficulties,’ explained Spalletti, analysing the match against Cesc Fabregas’s team.
