Davide Nicola calls for his Crotone side to perform ‘beyond their limits’ in order to get a result at Juventus.

The Pitagorici will be heavy underdogs when they face Max Allegri’s team in Turin this evening, but their Coach says no matches are won purely on paper.

“When you play against elite teams you need to be conscious of your own means, but unconscious in terms of trying to go beyond your limits,” Nicola told reporters.

Davide Nicola calls for his Crotone side to perform ‘beyond their limits’ in order to get a result at Juventus.

The Pitagorici will be heavy underdogs when they face Max Allegri’s team in Turin this evening, but their Coach says no matches are won purely on paper.

“When you play against elite teams you need to be conscious of your own means, but unconscious in terms of trying to go beyond your limits,” Nicola told reporters.

“We won’t change our way of playing. On paper they have the advantage, but the good thing about football is that doesn’t count for anything.

“You don’t win games just by being stronger. You have to be faster, more precise and more determined.”

Nicola, however, would not be drawn on Crotone’s chances of causing an upset.

“I don’t know what chances I would give Crotone. The important thing is that we need to believe we can give everything we can.”
