Fabio Cannavaro: Juventus Must Beat Bordeaux & Qualify For Champions League Last 16

Juventus defender Fabio Cannavaro can see qualification to the last 16 of the Champions League getting closer as he takes a glimpse at victory against Bordeaux.

The Bianconeri can guarantee a place in the next round by beating the French side at the Stade Chaban-Delmas on Wednesday night.

"We want to win so we can get qualification out of the way really quickly, but it will not be easy," Cannavaro told the press.

"They are a good side and have plenty of good players, regardless of their injuries."

Once Juve finish their business against Bordeaux they will be able to focus all their attention on the Derby d'Italia in two weeks against Inter. Nerazzurri coach Jose Mourinho is afraid racist chants might be directed at Mario Balotelli in Turin, but Cannavaro fails to see the connection.

"I have been going to stadiums for years and I have heard everything, but I don't think the ones in question are racist," added the stopper.

"In any case, I am not interested in other teams."
