The Bianconeri must overturn the 5-2 defeat in Istanbul to reach the Champions League round of 16: “Such feats are built with a team and not with a single player”
“Feelings of great evenings, of uncommon, not normal matches. Similar feats like those of this evening are built with a team and not with a single player.” Luciano Spalletti relies on the group a few minutes from Juve-Galatasaray, in which the Bianconeri must overturn the 5-2 in Istanbul to gain access to the round of 16 of the Champions League.
McKennie and Gregorio

The emergency on the left wing due to the suspensions of Cambiaso and Cabal pushes McKennie into that area of the pitch: “It’s a shame to have him play in that role – said Spalletti -. In our opinion he expresses himself better behind the striker, leaving more freedom. But we have needs. They have strong wingers in one-on-one situations and we have made the best possible choice in that role”. Di Gregorio on the bench? The Juventus coach’s response to Sky: “We make evaluations, even in-depth ones because they are important and serious things, we also get the boy involved, we look at how he reacts and decide like this. Maybe at this moment it is right to do it and we also do it for two or three matches to give him the chance to rediscover his abilities, because the solution is to go inside ourselves and rediscover what you know how to do and what brought you here. Football is made up of pressure and matches that test you from a character point of view and everyone we go through difficult moments. They are precisely those that make you become the person who has known everything, who has reacted and what is its real value with the knowledge you have made in the difficulties”.
