Thiago Motta Juventus Want To Dominate Champions League Tie

Thiago Motta: 'Juventus want to dominate' Champions League tie

Juventus head coach warns Chelsea they 'will have to suffer'

Motta says the Bianconeri 'will not allow' the Blues to win in Turin

Juventus head coach Thiago Motta has warned Chelsea that they "will have to suffer" in the second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie. The Bianconeri were held to a 1-1 draw in the first leg at Stamford Bridge, with Adrien Rabiot's opener cancelled out by Joao Felix's equaliser. But Motta is confident that his team can get the job done in Turin and progress to the quarter-finals. "We know that Chelsea are a great team, but we are Juventus and we are playing at home," Motta said. "We will have to dominate the match and not allow them to win." "We will have to suffer, but we are prepared for that. We know that the atmosphere will be electric and we will use that to our advantage." Motta also praised the performance of his players in the first leg, despite the draw. "I was very happy with the performance of my players in the first leg," Motta said. "We played with great intensity and we created a lot of chances. We just need to be more clinical in front of goal." "I am confident that we can win the second leg and progress to the quarter-finals. We have a great team and we are playing at home. We will give everything to win." Juventus will be without the suspended Manuel Locatelli for the second leg, but Motta is confident that his team can cope without the Italy international. "We have a lot of quality in our squad and we can cope without Manuel," Motta said. "We have players who can come in and do a job for us." "We are confident that we can win the second leg and progress to the quarter-finals. We have a great team and we are playing at home. We will give everything to win."
