Tudor Urges Juventus Squad to Rise to the Challenge Against Bologna
Juventus coach Igor Tudor remains optimistic ahead of the team's crucial match against Bologna, despite being without several key players, and urges his squad to take their destiny into their own hands.
Juventus, despite being without several key players, remains optimistic ahead of their crucial Serie A match against Bologna. Coach Igor Tudor expressed confidence, despite the absence of six major players, including forward Dusan Vlahovic, who is dealing with a thigh injury.
Vlahovic will join Gleison Bremer, Juan Cabal, Teun Koopmeiners, and Federico Gatti on the injury list, while Kenan Yildiz will miss the game due to suspension. Tudor confirmed the status of the injured players, saying, “Koopmeiners, Gatti, Cabal, and Bremer are still out. Vlahovic won't be available either, he tried today but he's not at 100 percent yet and won't make it.”

The coach emphasized the need for his depleted squad to step up. “I made a speech today that goes in this direction,” he said. “The players must go and take their destiny, because no one can give it to them. When the team prepares for the match well, then they manage to achieve everything.”

Juventus currently hold a one-point lead over Bologna, with four matches remaining. The race for the top spots remains tight, with AS Roma, Lazio, and Fiorentina all within three points of Juventus.
Igor Tudor emphasized the significance of each match in the final stage of the season. “In the final stage of the season, all games are important. There are only a few matches remaining and it is clear that they have great importance. We have to do well in all the games, and we have been preparing for this Bologna encounter all week."
Tudor made it clear that Juventus won't settle for a draw, as they aim to secure a Champions League spot.
“Bologna have years of work behind them, they are a difficult team to play against, full of running, of grit, of duel,” he said.
“You can't play for a draw, I've never done that in my life. We prepared the game to go and win. Tomorrow's result will decide a lot, but not everything.”
