Tudor: ‘Real Madrid have more quality, but Juventus must believe’

“We need teamwork, to suffer, to believe, go forward and score goals, don’t make mistakes at the back. It is a super difficult match, but at the same time also a wonderful game to play,” Tudor told DAZN.

Nicolò Savona badly sprained his ankle during the 5-2 defeat to Manchester City and is out for at least a month, while Federico Gatti is suffering from flu symptoms.

That means Daniele Rugani gets his Club World Cup debut in a totally reshuffled defence, with Alberto Costa at right wing-back.

“I tried to give the lads my input, which is to really believe, because that’s what you need in life and in football. Not to afterwards think oh we could’ve done that, we should’ve done that. You have to give your heart and soul in the moment,” continued Tudor.

“We have quality, Real Madrid certainly have more, but in football you have to play with courage and see what happens.”

Kenan Yildiz is given the nod in attack, with Randal Kolo Muani and Francisco Conceicao, but Tudor rejected any questions about the Turkish talent.

“I don’t want to talk about individuals. If we want to do something extraordinary today, we need all 16 players to give their all, including those off the bench.”

It is a new Real Madrid side under coach Xabi Alonso after years of Carlo Ancelotti, drawing 1-1 with Simone Inzaghi’s Al-Hilal before beating Pachuca and RB Salzburg.
