In the second round of the Club World Cup, Juventus will face Moroccan team Vidard. Juventus coach Tudor attended the pre-match press conference.

What do you think of Vadard?

This is a different opponent, and the game is also played at different times, and we are ready as always. It will be a big game, the opponent is a strong team, and we have to go all out within 90 minutes. The match was held at 12 noon local time in Philadelphia, USA. The weather was very hot. We had to be prepared to deal with such weather, but it was the same for both teams. We have to forget the heat and focus on the game.

In the first round of the Club World Cup group stage, Vidard had two scoring opportunities in the first half of the game against Manchester City. Each game is unique and cannot compare one game with another.

Are Juventus players feeling tired now?

I did not see any fatigue in the team, I only saw the enthusiasm and great spirit of playing together. The players played the first round of the group stage the way I like, and it’s also thanks to the work we did. I'm so glad I've been feeling good on the team since day one, I feel a lot of motivation around us, and so is the club.

Juventus boss Elkan also came to the United States to watch the game on site

He is an unchanging, powerful and important existence. If he can, he will let everyone feel his presence in the right way and in the right words. I really like the way he talks to the players when he is in Turin, he is full of energy and the players appreciate him and see him as an extra motivation for the team. After the last game, he was satisfied with the team's performance and the energy on the court.

If Juventus wins this game, it is expected to qualify early

Of course, it would be great to qualify from the group in advance, but you cannot predict the future, you must consider it one game after another. Will there be surprises in the

competition?

Of course it is possible, but we must try to avoid the kind of surprise that is negative, and that's what I do with the players.

Are you more optimistic now than before the Club World Cup?

It's too early to draw conclusions, we only played one game. I don't think about the finish line now, I think about what we have to do in every training session. You must live in the present, learn from the past, and build the future from the present.
