Juventus, Allegri: "1-0 is a result we're thrilled to get, when I saw Schick coming at goal..."

A 1-0 home victory for Juventus saw the bianconeri jump Inter into second place. They defeated a Roma side that remain in fourth, and the big match between the two was decided ultimately by Medhi Benatia's first half put-back into Roma's net. The coach of Juventus, Massimiliano Allegri spoke to Sky Sport after the match. "The back pass at the end was a little bit reckless by us, but I admit that 1-0 is a great result which will boost up our morale. When Schick went towards goal I said 'Madonna'... but Szczesny is a great keeper. I was happy with the improvement I saw in some of the players, like Alex Sandro who was great in the second part of the match. Pjanic now is hitting his stride. Tactical changes? We were giving up many goals and many shots at the start of the season, so I made changes. It's not a matter of the quality of any of the players on the team. Dybala? No message, just the decision that I made. I have to make decisions. When you have many great players on your roster its something you have to do."
