Juventus will host Borussia Dortmund in the opening round of the 2025/26 UEFA Champions League. Juventus coach Igor Tudor said in an interview that they are not yet considering how far they can advance in the competition and urged the team to focus on the challenges at hand.

Juventus coach Igor Tudor said, "Dortmund is a great team, not only in Germany, but also in Europe. This game is played at home and we are very much looking forward to starting this exciting tournament. As for how far we can go in the Champions League? We are not thinking about that at the moment. We just need to focus on the challenge in front of us, and this time the opponent is very strong."

"In the Champions League, every game is difficult because we play against the best teams in Europe. It is an honor for both the players and me to be able to participate in this competition."

Igor Tudor continued, "The team is in good shape in all aspects, the atmosphere within the team is harmonious, and the relationships are close. The coach needs to make decisions, and this job is not easy. But I am lucky because I coach a group of excellent, serious and focused players. The most important thing is to win, so when we step onto the field, we play for the team's victory."

In addition, in the earlier Serie A league, Juventus defeated Inter Milan 4-3 with goals from Lloyd Kelly, Yildiz, Kevren Thuram and Azic, achieving three consecutive victories and laying the foundation for future games.

Igor Tudor said, "I learned two important lessons from that game against Inter Milan. The first is that we played against a strong Serie A team and won the game without playing at our best."

"Secondly, it forces us to reflect on our true value and what we can and should do better. We were also missing some important players in that match, who were unable to play due to international duty or injuries."
