HELLAS, JURIC'S WORDS

This is what Ivan Juric had to say on the eve of Hellas vs. Inter: “How do I rate Inter? They’re the strongest team and have the best coach in the league. They are certainly serious contenders to win the Scudetto. They have a well-established way of playing and are trying to incorporate the ideal players for the coach’s ideas. How can they be stopped? With the game of our lives, hoping at the same time that they’re not at their best. We can’t make mistakes and will leave no stone unturned.”
