Allegri's team crushed Cagliari 3-1 on Thursday to declare themselves the winter champions, with a margin of four points over Roma pending the Giallorossi's game against Milan.
Speaking to Rai Sport, the Coach from Livorno was openly pleased with the victory.
“It was an important win, it lets us close the year holding the first place. The game was difficult, but my boys played it well,” Allegri considered as part of his post-match analysis.
“It wasn't easy, Cagliari keeps attacking until the end and if you give them space you're always at risk of conceding.
“We had to suffer until the end. After the 3-0 we stopped playing for seven or eight minutes, then we conceded the goal for 3-1 and at that point anything could have happened.
“We conceded too many shots from outside the box.”
Finally, Allegri agreed that the Scudetto has become a two-horsed race.
“At the moment this is the case, the standings say so. Juventus and Roma are the two contenders for the title.”
