Real Madrid midfielder Luka Modric has expressed that Los Merengues are not frightened by Juventus’ threat.
“We are not afraid of Juventus. They are a great team that we respect, but we are not afraid of them,” Modric told Madrid’s official website.
Two weeks ago, Real overcame La Vecchia Signora in Spain. They travel to Italy this evening to confront them once more in the return fixture in the Champions League. Real is currently the group leader with nine points.
Modric added, “They have a great squad with great players, and when you play big matches like this you want the best players from the other team to play against you. How do I for these games? Personally I want to play my best and help my team to win all of the matches and trophies possible.”
He said he is prepared for the Champions League matches in the usual way, the same as for a league match and there is not much difference between getting ready for one or the other.
