Stevan Jovetic wants to be there at all costs against Juventus. This was confirmed by the Montenegrin striker in an interview with La Gazzetta dello Sport: “Beating Juventus would be a great signal. A signal of strength. The European championships? I’m still sad about the elimination, we gave all our hearts but we didn’t make it and we were also a little unlucky.”
The national team, however, is now behind him. Now JoJo has returned to Milan. Not having played against Austria made him suffer but it also preserved him: all week he has worked both with the physiotherapist of the national team and this morning he will also visit the medical staff of Nerazzurri. The only thing missing is the rhythm of the game, but someone like him can find it: “If I ever scored against Juventus when I was at Fiorentina? Yes, once, I scored at the Stadium,” JoJo remembers. It was October 25, 2011, his goal tied the game which was later won the Bianconeri. His results with Fiorentina against Juve isn’t extraordinary: 7 matches, no wins, 3 draws and 4 defeats. All in the league. “It will be a great match, also because they are always Juve.”
Jovetic has missed two games with Inter: the first five, with him, gave full points; then, without its number 10, the collapse against Fiorentina (the night he was injured during the warm-ups) and the draw in Genoa against Sampdoria. The moral: without JoJo Inter can’t win? “But no, no – he smiles – it’s just a coincidence. We are a team and no one is more important than the other. These are situations that happen, now we try to recover.”
The Nerazzurri have not beat Juventus at the San Siro since 2010, the year of the treble. This year may be the right year: “But don’t be fooled by Juve being so low in the standings: they remain strong, very strong. Even despite the injuries? Yes, even despite them. Even though they have changed a lot? I repeat: even despite that, because in any case, they will still and always have good players, players of great value. Now, among other things they are picking up, so I say we need to be careful. Beating them would be a big step, as well as a signal to the whole league.”
