Fernando Llorente dedicated his Malmo goal to Juventus fans and warned “we want to top the group.”
The 2-0 victory in Sweden and Atletico Madrid’s 4-0 win over Olympiacos puts the Bianconeri second in Champions League Group A on nine points.
Atleti have 12 points and Olympiacos six. This means the Italians will be qualified for the knockouts with a point against Atletico Madrid in Turin.
A victory over Atleti by two clear goals would allow Juventus to top the group.
“It was a very important game, we knew that we could only win and I am very happy, as the team put in a great performance,” Llorente told Sport Mediaset.
“The whole team worked together and when we had the ball, we played really well. The team is very happy, there is one game to go and it depends on us now. We could even still win the group and want to go for it.
“I dedicate the goal to all the fans who came here to see us, as they are very important.”
