Douglas Costa insists Juventus “played well” against Sampdoria, but “we have to be more solid”.
The Bianconeri were 3-0 down to Samp in Genoa, and despite two late goals they fell to defeat and now sit four points behind Serie A leaders Napoli.
“We played well in Genoa, but that’s how football is,” the winger told JTV.
“If you don’t score and you concede goals then the match is compromised. I try to make myself ready when I’m called upon.

“We have to be more solid when we can score goals and close the game like yesterday, because if not they can become very complicated.”
Juve face Barcelona in the Champions League on Wednesday, in a match which could be crucial for qualification to the Last 16.
“It will be a great game with two very strong teams on the pitch, and we’re at home with our fans.
“The Champions League means a lot to us, to win it would be extraordinary. Getting back to tomorrow though, we expect a tactical and physical game.”
