Max Allegri warned Juventus fans “it’s not possible to win every game 3-0” after a last-gasp Coppa Italia victory at Parma.
“I think the team put in a good performance against a Parma side that pressed us and closed all the spaces,” the Coach told Rai Sport following the 1-0 result.
“We knew it wouldn’t be easy and the side was mature to not allow Parma anything. Morata did well to make the most of the chance on Llorente’s pass.
Max Allegri warned Juventus fans “it’s not possible to win every game 3-0” after a last-gasp Coppa Italia victory at Parma.
“I think the team put in a good performance against a Parma side that pressed us and closed all the spaces,” the Coach told Rai Sport following the 1-0 result.
“We knew it wouldn’t be easy and the side was mature to not allow Parma anything. Morata did well to make the most of the chance on Llorente’s pass.
“Llorente needs a striker next to him and Morata has those characteristics.”
The Bianconeri were particularly poor in the first half, as their only chance was a misplaced Simone Pepe cross that hit the far post.
It seemed remarkable considering Parma are bottom of the Serie A table and were beaten 7-0 in Turin back in November.
“I wouldn’t say we were sluggish. There were difficulties, partly due to the pitch, partly as Parma were very aggressive and tough tonight. We didn’t run many risks.
“It is not possible to win every match 3-0, some need to be won like this. I think it’s an important result because it shows that those who haven’t played as much are ready and can be called upon at any time.”
