Stefano Sturaro reveals Juventus Coach Max Allegri planned his goal against Bayern Munich.
The combative midfielder scored the Bianconeri’s equaliser in the Champions League tie on Tuesday, surging into the penalty area to reach Alvaro Morata’s headed cross.
“In the days leading up to it, Allegri had shown me videos of a similar situation at Bologna where I hadn’t made that gamble,” Stuaro explained to Tuttosport.

“In the days leading up to it, Allegri had shown me videos of a similar situation at Bologna where I hadn’t made that gamble,” Stuaro explained to Tuttosport.
“He told me I had to get into the box, without thinking about anything else. We worked on it a bit, and I put it into practice the first chance I got.
“It went quite well…”
The Old Lady recovered from two goals down to take a draw in the first leg, but are underdogs for the game in Bavaria.
“We have to go there with other beliefs and more certainty. There’s regret, because we could have done a bit better. Their pressure made us lose a bit of confidence in ourselves.
“We found it again though, and after seeing our second half performance we’re confident.”
