Nedved: 'Juve can win this'
Pavel Nedved hopes Juventus can tonight make up for his 2003 Champions League Final disappointment. “We can win this.”
The Czech star was suspended for that Final against Milan at Old Trafford, much as Giorgio Chiellini is ruled out by injury to face Barcelona in Berlin.
“It was a huge disappointment for me in 2003,” Nedved told Tuttosport.
“Now Juve are back at the top, are dominating football in Italy and are holding their own in Europe, even if four clubs can consider themselves stronger.
“The lads strongly wanted this Final. Of course, with Leo Messi, Neymar and Luis Suarez, some people – who in my view are over the top – say that Barcelona start from 2-0.
“Yes, they are difficult to stop, unpredictable, creative and strong, but we can win this.
“Barça are the favourites, fine, but the Final is a different thing. Anything could happen in a one-off game.
“We must block off Barcelona’s initiative and attack them.”
Nedved has a particular eye out for his old teammate Gigi Buffon, who was in that 2003 Final.
“The Champions League is the only trophy missing from his career.”
