On Sunday Orzinuovi’s away match: “Getting back to winning is important to secure third place”
UDINE. Apu, it’s time to get up. After the defective away match in Piedmont, with the injury to Mussini, the Juventus team aims to return to victory in tomorrow’s direct match in Orzinuovi.
On the eve of this key match in a play-off perspective, we took the pulse of the Udine group together with Vittorio Nobile, one of the “senators” of the Apu locker room.
Noble, how psychologically does the Piedmontese double kappaò weigh?
«We knew that we would face the first two of the class and we were very positive, convinced that we would score at least two points. We have collected two very different kappaos, but we do not give up, quite the contrary. From these two defeats we have to get the motivation to understand what we lack to get to the top and get back to victory immediately ».
How heavy is the loss of Mussini?
«Federico played 28 minutes on average, scoring 15 points per game. It leaves a void to fill and you have to do it as a team. Clearly we in the external department are the first to be valued more ».
How long do you need to get back to the top after the injury in Piacenza?
«Physically I feel fine, I recovered well together with Gigi Sepulcri. It is mentally that I have to recover something, I lack the pace that this competition requires ».
On Sunday in Orzinuovi there will be yet another “sliding door” of the season. Do you agree?
«Yes, also because if we win we overcome the Urania with which we are 2-0 in direct clashes. Defending third place is very important in view of the second phase of the championship ».
Orzinuovi was stopped for Covid but returned in a great way. Udine, on the other hand, paid a duty for a month. Does the virus affect the head or legs more?
“Whoever had it heard it, undoubtedly. Let’s say that in our case a balance has failed. I think it is a more mental factor, precisely because consolidated team mechanisms are lacking overnight ».
Subscribers are trusting the APU, few are asking for a refund. What message does he send to the fans?
“We really appreciate the fact that our supporters are showing their belief in us, in the project launched by a largely renewed company. For this reason I say that we must respond on the pitch, with victories ».
