Juventus' Patrice Evra is pleased with the 2-0 win over Atalanta: 'Compared to the Premier League, Serie A really teaches you to defend'.

In spite of their recent near-disaster against Inter in the Coppa Italia, the Bianconeri have kept up their form in the championship, making it nine games in a row without conceding a goal now.

“The real Juventus is the team capable of picking up a strings of victories, and that's what's happening,” he told the Press. “From here onwards every game is a final, so I'm not surprised when I see [Mario] Mandzukic helping us in defence.

“Every day I think about our objective, which is the fifth consecutive Scudetto. When I came to Italy [former Juve striker Carlos] Tevez told me that it took a hundred chances to score one goal [in Serie A].

“This is different by comparison to England, where it's a show in which the first team to get exhausted falls, like a boxer. In Serie A, you win with your head.

“I'm learning so much here. I must thank Italy, a country that taught me so much from early on in my career. Now let's win against Bayern Munich. I do believe it's possible.

“[Mario[ Lemina? I'm happy for his goal. I told him to be decisive. Victories are made with the whole squad and this will have to be our strength if we want to lift a trophy.”
