Juventus head coach Igor Tudor will be a happy man tonight after his Bianconeri side emerged with three points after a tricky and closely fought 1-0 win at Genoa.<\/p>\n

The Bianconeri were not particularly impressive but they got the job done and it is an important victory to keep the side\u2019s momentum up after a positive start to the season.<\/p>\n

Speaking to the microphones of the press after the game, with quotes via TuttoMercatoWeb<\/a>, Tudor said \u201cI like this team. I told the guys that I have a really good feeling about a team that is switched on like this. Even before the match, those who came in had great energy. When you come here to Genoa you have to earn everything and concede nothing. Two clean sheets, that\u2019s good.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dusan Vlahovic scored the winner for Tudor\u2019s side tonight<\/a>; the Serbian coming on as a substitute in the second-half to score the only goal. The former Fiorentina striker had been linked heavily away from Turin this summer, with Milan being strongly linked as a potential reunion between the forward and Massimiliano Allegri, who was in charge when Vlahovic signed for Juventus.<\/p>\n

Speaking about the striker, Tudor said \u201cI\u2019ll repeat what I have already said. In this month and a half of preparation he has always been focused, he has worked as an example. Comolli said he is staying and I\u2019m happy. He is a strong player and hopefully he keeps up this scoring rate, which is no small thing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tudor was asked if he expects anything from the transfer market, to which he replied \u201cI focus on coaching. I expect nothing, I\u2019m happy.\u201d<\/p>\n

With the Bianconeri\u2019s strong start to the 2025-26 season, Tudor was asked if his side are in the race for the Scudetto. He replied, \u201cOnly two games have been played. I want to go match by match and do our best in the next one. Stay focused and train well, then we\u2019ll see where this mindset and way of working takes us.\u201d<\/p>\n

On his substitutions, the coach said \u201cIf you make changes it is because you think you have other options. A substitution isn\u2019t always made just because someone isn\u2019t doing well.\u201d<\/p>\n

Finally, Tudor argued Pierre Kalulu is useful his versatility, able to play several roles across the defence and said \u201cA team should always reflect its coach\u201d, when asked about whether this Juventus is more pragmatic and beautiful.<\/p>\n
