Juventus midfielder Arturo Vidal inists Monaco will be ‘difficult’ opponents in the Champions League Quarter final.
On paper, the principality side are the best opponents the Bianconeri could have hoped for in today’s draw, as they are the lowest-ranked of all the teams remaining in the competition.
However, the Chilean international warns that the Old Lady are in for a tough test.
“We were in the dressing room when we heard it was against Monaco,” Vidal revealed as he spoke to Sky.

“We were in the dressing room when we heard it was against Monaco,” Vidal revealed as he spoke to Sky.
“Did we cheer? No, no they are all difficult games, these are the eight best teams in Europe. I think it’s a 50/50 game and we have to be focused to try and progress.”
Juventus are 14 points clear of the chasing pack in Serie A, is it difficult to maintain the same intensity knowing their rivals are so far behind?
“It’s difficult, but we have only one thing on our minds and that’s winning a fourth Scudetto, and we have to make sure we’re only thinking about that.
“Genoa? It’s the only fixture we’ve lost so far in the League, so we have to win [the return fixture on Sunday].”
