Lippi: "I'm optimist"
/30 11 2002
Exams never end. After an excellent November, both in
Serie A (four victories against Modena, Piacenza,
Milan and Torino and one draw against Bologna) and in
Champions League (victory in Kiev and draw in La Coruna),
Juventus is ready to start as a protagonist also in December.
The first day of the month presents a great match between
the Italian champions and Roma, which finished at second
place last season in Serie A.
It's a classic game, full of meanings and fundamental for
the race towards the Scudetto, even if at the moment Roma
is nine points behind and lost the last match played this
week against Arsenal in Champions League.
But Marcello Lippi doesn't think that Roma is living a
bad moment:
“Roma can play well against everyone,I'm sure about that
and they're too.Redandyellows will surely want to do well
because they're facing us and because they want to re-start
their run in Serie A.If the're going to be angrier because
of their last defeats?I don't think so,I had already said
this after the match against AC Milan: these kind of matches
are really felt by the champions,who always want to do better
and better”
After the great comeback against Deportivo in La Coruna,the
whiteandblack coach can be quite optimist:
“It's a optimism which is justified by many things.I'm aware
that my guys can play a great match.I expect concentration,
attention and pressure.”
But,first of all,Marcello Lippi would like to watch a match
able to be“only”a football match,without discussions and
trash talks.”Luckily this week we've spoken about other
things - Lippi said–Both us and Roma had to concentrate on
the Champions League,so we've started thinking about this
match only from Thursday.For me tomorrow's game is only a
football match,played at Olimpico,one of the most beautiful
stadium in the world.I'd like that at the end of the match
we'll be able to talk only about the tactics and not about
something else. As it should always be.”
