The striker, who scored against Lithuania, has been dry in the league since 7 February: he’ll try again against Verona
“The strikers live on goals. When you don’t score, nobody feels good”: words and music by Dusan Vlahovic, from Serbia’s retirement. The air of the national team did him good: in Friday’s match he scored one of the two goals with which his national team beat Lithuania, with Kostic who, to stay on the subject, provided the winning assist to Tadic.
So far 11 goals with Juve

With Juve he returned to scoring against Freiburg on 16 March, while in the league he has been out since 7 February, when he signed a brace against Salernitana. And of course he’s aiming for the next match, the challenge against Verona on Saturday evening, to get back on track. Meanwhile, this season he has scored 11 for Juventus, including two braces and three penalties: 8 in Serie A, one in the Champions League and two in the Europa League.
Goals and confidence

Meanwhile, he comments on Serbia’s momentum: “We are all happy to have won and I hope we will continue like this. It is certainly important to have started the qualifiers with a victory. We have divided the minutes, we will play a very important match on Monday, the stadium will certainly be full and it is a very good thing”. On his relationship with the net: “The forwards thrive on goals. When you don’t score goals, nobody feels good. In this case, the most important thing is that we won, and that goal is just a plus, and I’m certainly very happy. The goals give the players confidence and I hope to stay in this form, but above all that the team keeps winning.”
