"They don't have the freedom to make decisions and play their game. There were problems here too, with the attitude, when we allowed Bodo/Glimt back into the game. We could have avoided that. The players need to grow in terms of belief and courage, we need that extra step in both mentality and in our training, because we don't have the right tempo in training."
""The team does feel this cloud over them, with everything that is said," Spalletti told Sky Sports Italia. "A few players are not fully fit or in form, and we need to do this in a real match situation, not in the neutrality of training, because for speed of thought and movement, you need that scenario.""
""The team played an open, attacking game, and it was a struggle at times, as Bodo/Glimt play with really impressive passing and speed of thought on this pitch," he added."
Juventus won 3-2 away at Bodo/Glimt in freezing conditions on an artificial pitch, overturning a half-time deficit to secure a stoppage-time winner. Ole Didrik Blomberg opened the scoring, Lois Openda and Weston McKennie put Juventus ahead, Sondre Fet equalised from the penalty spot, and Jonathan David bundled in the late winner. The victory ended a winless run across the first four Champions League matchdays and lifted the team in the domestic standings. Juventus registered 16 shots on target, won the expected-goals battle, and identified belief, courage, fitness, and training tempo as areas needing improvement.
