The Udinese-Turin duel / Sottil’s Portuguese against Juric’s Dutch for a challenge between defense and attack
The weekend is back and with it Serie A. Udinese is waiting for Turin within the friendly walls. However, the scheduled match is not only the one between the Granata team and the Juventus one, one of the big duels in sight is in fact the one between Schuurs and Beto. The Dutchman, in his first season at the granata, has shown that he can contain opponents thanks to his physical power, which helps his next rival when chasing goal.
Schuurs, a wall under construction
Opposing areas of the field and ends for the two protagonists of the Turin-Udinese duel. In fact, Schuurs plays in the rear of the grenade. Arrived in the summer under the Mole to take the place of BRemer, he immediately proved his talent, quickly winning the heart of Juric and that of the fans. “Schuurs-Schuurs-Schuurs” is the chorus that is often heard from the curve when they take the ball. Gifted with physicality and a good reading of the game, the Dutchman never misses an opportunity to look for the goal, often crossing the field alone with the ball at his feet. His next opponent won’t make it easy for him.
Beto, the main danger of the Friulians
Beto is in fact expected by the Turin defender. Udinese’s top scorer, he didn’t spare himself in the first part of the season. With his seven goals to his credit, he is in twelfth position in the Serie A scorers chart. The last one dates back to the match against Bologna, lost by his but still with his signature. Physical and fast, the Portuguese is a danger to anyone who prostrates in front of him. Not only actions built for him: very good at aerial play, he has a predilection for making developments on set pieces particularly profitable.
