Juventus goalkeeper Marco Storari admits they “underestimated Parma” in tonight’s slender Coppa Italia win.
It took until the 89th minute for Alvaro Morata to find a breakthrough, deciding the quarter-final 1-0.
“We have mental strength, even though we found a lot of difficulties tonight and Parma deserve credit for that,” Storari told Rai Sport.
“We started out a bit sluggish, I don’t know if it’s because we underestimated Parma, but got back on track as the game wore on and eventually got this semi-final spot.
“Let’s honour Parma, who despite all their difficulties worked non-stop for 90 minutes and put in a great performance.
“You can see from the line-up picked by the Coach that we want to win the Coppa Italia, as we haven’t won this trophy for a long time. Besides, we are Juventus and therefore want to win every game.
“Every player on the bench can give that something more. This is what we work on every day, as it’s what sets the big clubs apart from the rest.”
