Dybala switches focus to Barca after Chievo win
It has been a prolific start to the season for Paulo Dybala, who will hope to make an impact for Juventus against Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League this week.
Paulo Dybala urged his Juventus team-mates to adjust its focus quickly to the challenge that awaits in Barcelona after putting the seal on a 3-0 Serie A win over Chievo.
The Argentina forward came off the bench to net his fifth goal in three league games this season, with Juve maintaining its 100 per cent start to the top-flight campaign.
Next up for the defending Serie A champion is Wednesday's (AEST) trip to Camp Nou for the opening game of its bid for UEFA Champions League glory, having lost in last season's final to Real Madrid.
Dybala, whose side will then travels to Sassuolo, underlined the need to build on the Chievo triumph.
"We must be aware that this is the first of three fundamental matches to tell us where the season will go," he said.
"We showed a lot of respect for Chievo and will show a lot of respect for Barcelona too."
Speaking about his impact on the game, which saw him introduced when Juve was one goal to the good, the 23-year-old added: "The team was already winning, it's just that when I came on we changed system and there were more spaces to play in.
"We did well and deserved the victory."
