Captain Gianluigi Buffon of Juventus urges his team to show more courage in the upcoming UEFA Champions League match against Atletico Madrid. To advance to the next stage, the bianconeri would need a draw in this match, while a victory by a two-goal margin would allow them to climb to the top spot in Group A. The Serie A champions lost to Galatasaray in the previous season's round of 16 and settled for playing in the Europa League. However, Buffon is ready to prove that his team can compete for the highest honors in international football. "On Tuesday, we will need a bigger dose of courage than we demonstrated in Friday's match against Fiorentina," the goalkeeper told Tuttosport. "On Tuesday, it's a final. We will fight for the first place, but the most important goal is to progress. We consider ourselves a team capable of achieving something great, but we must have the strength and courage to take risks." "A victory in the Champions League is what I have been striving for for 14 years." The decisive match of the strongest European tournament will start at 21:45 Lithuanian time in Turin.
