Turin, 24 August 2025 - Defender Alessandro Circati's words after Juventus vs. Parma on Matchday 1 of Serie A 2025-26.

“We were hoping to take something back home with us, but this wasn't the case and this can happen against a strong team. They have quality players. I think that Bremer's block was key, we must learn to manage these moments, as we knew that Juve would have more of the ball than us and that they would cause us issues. I think that we played perfectly for 50 minutes. We were very compact and even in the second half we had another chance through Pellegrino. We missed a little something in the final phase because we put several balls in behind the defence. Then, with just a bit of movement and some pace, they caused us problems. We attacked right to the end to try and take something back with us. The goal? When you concede, you know you can do better. The game is made up of moments, against Juventus there were moments when it was going better for them, and at other points it was going our way. Perhaps we should have managed it a bit better when they scored the first goal. We learned that we must avoid these things next time. I think that the whole team is strong and that we all have our own work to do, What should we improve in? Maybe holding onto the ball a bit. The first goal and the offside? I didn't see it, but I heard that there was an offside in the play building up to the goal. I repeat, I haven't seen it, but I'll have a look. We are young with plenty of enthusiasm, we are determined to show what we're made of, to do well, both as individuals and as a collective. For that reason, I think it's an advantage being young. Cuesta is a manager who gives us a lot of energy, he is passing on clear ideas to us and we are doing our best on the pitch. He asks us for a few things, but they must be done well. We have a lot of energy and enthusiasm on the pitch and we are electric, which we can see in him'.
