Reporter’s view: After leaking too many goals – at slightest by their possess lofty standards – earlier in a season, Juve have rediscovered their defensive reduction and conceded usually once in their final 16 games in all competitions. Keeping a purify piece here could be crucial, yet it will not be easy to keep Harry Kane and Tottenham during bay, generally but Blaise Matuidi’s appetite and dire in midfield.

*All competitions, many new first
We have to play with comprehension and technique and try not to concede, yet we would not settle for a 0-0. We know their strengths and we know we will have to humour during times since Tottenham have 4 players with good peculiarity in attack. We will have to play really good technically since they would kick us in a earthy battle. We need to compensate good courtesy since it’s doubtful one group dominates this kind of tie.
It’s unfit to review a story with Juventus’s – they have reached a final twice in a final 3 years. But we have a good devise and we wish to strech their level. Tomorrow we will see if we can compete. We will have to play with motivation, appetite and desire. We can't change a principles. We will have to be aggressive, brave, and to honour a opponents. When we started personification we dreamt of being concerned in games like this.
