Buffon: «We must win against Udinese»
The return to the championship is drawing near. With the parenthesis for the international matches which is not completely over yet and while awaiting the two matches scheduled for tonight, Juventus is continuing with its preparation in view of the match on Sunday night at the Olimpico against Udinese.
Amongst the international players who have already returned to base is Gigi Buffon. The number one stayed with Lippi’s squad in order to make his 100th appearance for the azzurri last Saturday against Holland, before returning to Turin. «It was very useful for the team to make another step towards the World Cup – he said on his official website www.gianluigibuffon.com – and for me it was the opportunity to reach an important milestone. Tonight I will watch my mates against Sweden an I am sure that they will do well».
Some of his mates - Chiellini, Grosso, Legrottaglie and Camoranesi- he will be meeting tomorrow afternoon, before the training session tomorrow afternoon. With regards to another two azzurri he will have to postpone the appointment: Di Natale and Pepe will be absent on Sunday for the match in Turin. The first is suspended while the second is injured. «They are fundamental players but I don’t think that Udinese will be easier to beat for this reason. For us it will be a decisive match for our progress in the championship and for this reason we must win. At home we have already dropped a number of points and we cannot afford more false steps».
Just like last year, the match against the friulani comes after a break. Last time it was at the start of the championship and was settled by an Amauri goal. This year it is in mid-November but most of all two weeks before the match against Inter. Buffon concluded: «the direct encounter is drawing near. Our objective is to start winning full points and win the 3 points against Udinese, trying to repeat this in the next match away to Cagliari».
