| | Motta: No Juve nerves |
Wednesday 12 November, 2008 |
| Brazilian comeback kid Thiago Motta claims Genoa aren't feeling the pressure ahead of tomorrow's game against Juventus.
The Grifone have been on impressive form and they demolished Reggina 4-0 last weekend.
However, Gian Piero Gasperini's side will need to be at their best to take the points home from Turin with Juve also on song.
“We aren't feeling tense,” Motta maintained. “We will just go to Turin and try to test a great team like Juventus.
“If I remember rightly, I met them twice when I was in Spain and it will be good to take them on again.
“We are playing good football, but I still think there is room for improvement if we continue to work hard.
“As a team we are confident but we are also humble, which is important.”
Motta has made five appearances for the Rossoblu since shaking off the knee problem that dogged his recent career.
Gianluca Rocchi will be the referee for tomorrow evening's Stadio Olimpico encounter, which has been moved forward due to Italy's rugby match against Argentina on Saturday.
