“It’s great to score goals, but today is wonderful because we got a very important victory,” Dybala told Sky Sport Italia.
The reigning champions climbed to fourth place and are one point ahead of Roma, an incredible feat considering six rounds ago they were 11 points behind.
“We have to continue like this, we are on the right track. We were far behind, the Coach said we’d close up to this stage and he was right. There’s one game to go before Christmas.
“Today we won against a team that plays excellent football, but the courage and determination saw us earn the victory.”
