Juventus manager, Massimiliano Allegri, has said he is not worried about their poor record in major European finals, ahead of their match against Real Madrid in the Champions League on Saturday.
The Serie A champions have won only two of their eight final appearances, losing their last four – most recently against Barcelona in 2015.
“It’s an important match and we must simply do what we’ve produced all season long,” Allegri told a news conference.
“Negativity is infectious. When I took over there was an air of negativity which was frightening and I can sense a touch of that now too when I hear people talking about the finals we’ve lost.
“Juventus haven’t lost six finals – we’ve been involved in eight. Making the final is incredible.
“There’s only one Champions League like there’s only one Super Bowl and what matters is being in the right place at the right time. I’m delighted to be in the final and I feel fortunate to be leading a team out in Cardiff on Saturday.”
