He is the Bull of Juric: “Deserved victory, I’m only sorry for Praet”. Pjaca: “I’ll keep my shirt tight tonight”

It blossomed like sparkling wine il Toro. Transformed compared to that of the first two days and able to take other steps forward after the 4-0 at Salernitana and against an opponent of much higher rank. He has already become Juric’s Bull, who hits the first victory of his career against Sassuolo. «In the past I have often played good games without collecting anything – the Croatian’s redemption – but today in addition to the great performance we won without conceding anything. It was a deserved victory ». The grenades will have time to adjust their aim given the 8 wasted opportunities before breaking free, but at this moment it is much more important to have hit the most important goal, that of continuity. «When you take goalposts and see saves on the line there is nothing to blame – Juric again – maybe we could have been more wicked, we hope that in the next games we need fewer opportunities to score. But we always want to perform like this, our attitude must be this: attack, press, accept uncomfortable situations that can also be risky, but that if done well bring you advantages. Today went very well ».

A test passed with flying colors, even if the grenade took 83 ‘to legitimize a superiority that appeared clear throughout the race, risking to throw away the enormous amount of work. “You must also have the right condition, but the efforts are more of a mental nature, I assure you – Juric again – to play in this way you must always be concentrated, if you make a mistake you risk bad figures”. Turin’s long and quality bench made the difference, especially in the most important meters of the field. «Having options is a wonderful thing – the grenade coach melts a bit – it is important to have fresh and determined people to be an attacking midfielder. I’m only sorry for Praet, he had a muscle problem, we’ll do some tests right away to figure out what he’s got. “

Pjaca’s words
«Deserved victory, we have had many opportunities: we are happy». It took Marko Pjaca six minutes since he entered the field to score his first league goal with Torino. A shot that was worth three points and legitimized the superiority of Juric’s team seen throughout the game. «Tonight’s shirt I will keep it tight, it will have a special place – the satisfaction of the Croatian -. We must always give our best for these colors, with the right spirit we can have a good season ». The man of the match also risked not playing. “Juric had called me, then Praet’s injury changed the cards and Linetty came in my place”, reveals the player who then carved out the last 13 ‘of the game, taking over for his compatriot Brekalo, who had a positive debut with a post hit to a beaten goalkeeper and good plots drawn with the ward mate Sanabria. «I scored a good goal, the result of a good action – says Pjaca -, we hope to continue on this path. Competition? Don’t worry, it’s nice to have such strong teammates, everyone can score and help out ».
