Verona's "Hellas" head coach Andrea Mandorlini does not believe that the scenario of the Italian Cup quarterfinal match against Juventus in Turin will be repeated in the Serie A championship.
Last Thursday, the "mastiffs" failed to resist the country's champions and were defeated with a score of 6-1. After the loss, Verona's team stayed in the capital of Piedmont and began preparing for the 19th Serie A match against Juventus.
"What will be our reaction? These are completely different matches, so the game will be different, like day and night," said A. Mandorlini. "After the 6-1 loss, it will be difficult to play worse. We were not concentrated and made a lot of mistakes that Juventus players took advantage of."
"As Gianluigi Buffon said, different players will show up on the field and you will see a different picture. A healthy Luca Toni could also help us after his recovery from injury. I am sure we will perform better than on Thursday. I am proud of the mentality instilled in the team over the past five years and I know that soon we will be back on the path of victories," the coach noted.
