Juventus, Allegri: "Titles are won by winning games like this. Champions? I only thought about tonight"
Three important points for Juventus, who responded to Roma's victory this afternoon against Napoli. The giallorossi, who are now in second place, are still 5 points from the top of the table. Tonight, the bianconeri beat Udinese 2-1 at the Juventus Stadium thanks to a brace from Paulo Dybala. "At the end of the game, there was a little tension because it was a very complicated match. After we took the lead 2-1, we had some favorable chances that we have to do better with," Massimiliano Allegri told Sky Sport. "The guys who were on the pitch played a great game. The title is won by winning games like the one we played tonight."
Allegri also had to think ahead to next week's Champions League fixtures: "Have I chosen the formation for Tuesday? No, I only thought about tonight's match. I had 6 players out: Pjanic and Chiellini weren't well. Tuesday will be an important game and we will be ready regardless. Buffon? He can make half a mistake every now and then, and let's say that tonight he wanted to put us in difficulty to give us a spark," the bianconeri coach joked. Then, Allegri explained what he expects from his players: "I would like the team to change during the match: occupying spaces, playing a different way. It makes it very simple: we must do the opposite of what the opponent does. In the second half, we took away the reference points from Udinese, who prepared for the match in a specific way. In the first half, we had a few difficulties. Then we were able to have several chances to score a third goal."
He ended by talking about this afternoon's Napoli-Roma match: "It was a beautiful game, I had fun watching it. Roma played a good game and Napoli weren't far behind. We have won 7 out of 8. And after the international break, it's always tough to win games, especially against this Udinese team."
