Vlahovic, goal and win against Serbia: “Goals give confidence, strikers live on goals”

‘Strikers live on goals. If you don’t score, nobody’s fine’: words and music by Dusan Vlahovic, from Serbia’s retirement. The national team vibe did him good: in Friday’s game he scored one of the two goals his national team beat Lithuania with Kostic who, to stay on topic, provided the crucial assist for Tadic.

He has now scored 11 goals for Juventus this season, including two braces and three penalties: 8 in Serie A, one in the Champions League and two in the Europa League.

Meanwhile, he comments on Serbia’s momentum: “We are all happy to have won and I hope we continue like this. It’s certainly important to start qualifying with a win. We split the minutes, we’re going to play a very important game on Monday, the stadium will definitely be full and that’s a very good thing”. On his relationship with the net: “The strikers live from goals. If you don’t score goals, nobody feels good. In this case the most important thing is that we won and that goal is just a plus and I’m very happy for sure. The goals give the players confidence and I hope to stay in this form but most importantly that the team keep winning.”
