Thiago Mottas' first friendly match of Juventus for the new season did not go as expected for the whites. The changes expected from the new coach have not been seen yet, even though it is only the first test, after Thiago Motta's men were defeated 3-0 by Nurenberg in Germany.

The Italian team conceded the first goal from Jander in the 19th minute of the challenge where Tiago Mota completely changed the 11 in the second half of the game, with Vlahovic back alone at the top of the attack.

The latter had the opportunity to equalize with an 11-meter, but missed it. Meanwhile, the Germans deepened the difference in the last minutes where they scored with Forkel and Janish, to take the result to 3-0.

On the field, many young people and only 3-4 players of the first team, this is also because some are still on vacation and some have just returned. Also on the field was the Albanian Luis Hasa who played as a starter.

"We have to work and improve. Weah, at the moment, I see him ahead and ahead of others. I have no doubt that we will build a strong team", said Thiago Motta after the match.

"I think we can control the game better, controlling ourselves means playing the ball better and in the opponent's half of the field, extending this phase of possession to organize and also tire the opponent before we find the space where we can attack. At the beginning of the second half we didn't do well in the first half. "Our start in the second half, a team that manages to dominate the opposition, create and not allow the opposition to restart. This is our idea and to extend this moment in the game. We have to be able to do it for as long as possible."
