Mirko Vucinic ready for "war" against Bayern Munich

Vucinic ready for "war" against Bayern

Juventus striker Mirko Vucinic has urged his teammates to treat their Champions League clash against Bayern Munich on Wednesday as if it "were a war".

The Serie A leaders were beaten 2-0 by the newly crowned Bundesliga champions last Tuesday in the first leg of their quarter-final tie.

The Montenegro striker has said that Juve will not be in a mood to accommodate a celebratory Bayern when Jupp Heynckes's side visit Juventus Stadium next week.

"Everyone needs to give more than 100% and face the game as if it were a war," Vucinic told reporters after the game.

"We must believe we can do it. The Germans have won the championship and I'd like to congratulate them, but they certainly won't be greeted by a party atmosphere here on Wednesday night."

Vucinic scored twice as Antonio Conte's men overcame Pescara 2-1 in Serie A on Saturday.
