A wet and unlucky debut: Tevez punishes a good Samp

It
was their turn: they tripped us up. Talking about the bianconeri,
maybe last season was too satisfactory, because this one, starts with a
false step. In Marassi, under a pouring rain, Antonio Conte’s Juventus asserts
itself and beats, thanks to a goal by Carlos Tevez scored at the minute 13th of
the second half, the team that had become its bête-noire. Sampdoria,
however, was not nearly submissive or scared by the Italian Champions:
actually, our team has been able to cope, up to the end, with a more
prized adversary and managed to leave the stadium acclaimed by more than
25.000 supporters blucerchiati who attended the first match of the new
season.

Confidence. «I saw a solid and determined team – said Delio Rossi after the match -. We played well against a stronger adversary. I was curious to see how we would have performed against a dreadnought and I had good signals. It’s evident that this group is concrete. Before judging it’s necessary to wait at least three or four matches: I’ve confidence in these guys».

Performance. Manolo Gabbiadini, one of the best players of the match added «What a regret! We’ve been good but it was not enough, or the result would have been different. Am I satisfied with my performance? No. I’m happy only when we obtain points».

Concentration. Angelo Palombo is already thinking of the next match, in Bologna: «We must restart from this performance. It won’t be easy but Sunday we’ll have to play maintaining the same concentration we had on Saturday».
