Fiorentina talent Stevan Jovetic is yet to score his first Italian goal, so the Montenegro star hopes to do so against the Azzurri instead.
The 19-year-old was snapped up by the Viola in the summer, but questions over his tactical place within the team and a lack of consistency have seen him dropped to the bench.
“I am yet to score in Italian football, so it would be particularly nice to break that duck against the Azzurri,” he grinned.
“That would certainly be great, but if it meant Montenegro winning the match, then I would be willing to sit on the bench to make that happen.”
Tonight in Podgorica Jovetic’s Montenegro welcome Marcello Lippi’s side in a 2010 World Cup qualifier, which you can watch LIVE online.
“We are playing against the world champions and know full well it is going to be a difficult game. Paradoxically that can help us, as we have absolutely nothing to lose.
“We must stay calm and concentrated for the entire match, because just one mistake against Italy can cost you dearly.”
There is even more pressure on Jovetic’s shoulders, as teammate and Roma striker Mirko Vucinic is suspended, so he is now the main star in the team.
小妖在我佛还没有进球,所以这个黑山小妖想在对阵意大利的时候进球来代替。
这个十九岁的有为青年被我佛在今年夏天抢到,但是由于他在战术中位置的不适应以及他欠缺稳定的发挥使他坐了冷板凳。
“我没有一个进球,所以我想在对阵意大利的时候进球一定会很不错。但是同时如果我只是坐在替补席,而黑山能赢得比赛----这样我也会很愿意。”
今夜小妖将迎来里皮大军的挑战,他们同为争取10年世界杯资格。届时,你可以通过现场直播来观看。
“我们将对阵世界冠军队,深知这是一场艰苦的比赛,但是我们赤脚的不怕穿鞋的。~~”
“我必须整场比赛冷静专注,因为仅仅一个错误都会导致失败。
小妖的身上还有来自国家队的压力,Vucinic停赛,他就是对中的主力攻击点
