Juve recorded a second draw in Serie A when they were held 1-1 at Crotone last weekend, with Alvaro Morata cancelling out Simeon Nwankwo’s opener, though the ‘Old Lady’ ended the match with 10 men after a red card for Federico Chiesa.
“We went down for the second game in a row. We strive, we put determination and courage, but we must be better at the start,” said Morata. “We need determination when we have something against us. It’s all about playing and winning. As the team plays, it’s all about bringing home points. We did not, we must train and work".
Verona were held 0-0 by Genoa on Monday night, continuing a generally positive start to the season for the Gialloblu, who sit comfortably inside the top half of the table heading into this clash.
"I’m satisfied with the performance, I think we made a good match,” coach Ivan Juric said. “We had 14 corners, [Mattia] Perin made great saves. We missed the winning shot. Today there were only two starters from the team of the last season. There were some guys born in 2000 and 2001, they have talent but our goal is to survive, become tough and improve. I’m not complaining [for having young players].”
