Juventus, Allegri: “We need to defend better and take advantage of the opportunities”

The Juventus coach: “We mustn’t get nervous, because even if we had beaten Bologna we would not have been sure of fourth place. They run behind, Fiorentina have a better calendar and also a direct match with us”

A tie caught by the hair in full recovery, with the usual Vlahovic, and only one point to shore up a fourth place that, five days from the end, is not yet armored, quite the contrary. For Juve there will still be a sweat and Massimiliano Allegri knows it.

The Juventus coach came to Dazn’s microphones with a certain delay compared to usual, probably because there was something to say in the locker room … “No – explains Max -, in the end we spoke with great serenity. it is to get nervous, frenzied, because if we won today we would not have been sure of fourth place “. But then he specifies that “we have to get back to defensive a little bit better, we conceded goals in four of the last five games. But I’m not worried. We are aware that to get to the top four we have to take one step at a time. Today we have played a bad first half, even if there were a couple of favorable chances and after Arnautovic’s goal we hit a post and had another chance. Lately we always concede goals and we need to improve on this aspect. We need to be more serene, more clear. At the beginning of the season we would have lost games like these. But now let’s think about Fiorentina. “

Allegri beats on the same key: serenity. “We mustn’t get depressed after this draw, they travel behind, so we need to be calm and concentrated.” In eleven against nine, according to Allegri, “it was necessary to have more clarity to bring the ball closer to the penalty area, it was perhaps only doing two actions, but doing them better. Today first in the first half not played well, absolutely not. But in at this moment in the championship there are fewer forces, so you have to concede less and take advantage of the opportunities you have. ” He is asked which teams can be more dangerous to undermine Juve in the race for fourth place. “I believe that Fiorentina have a good schedule and a direct match with us, but there are also Lazio and Rome. Let’s take one step at a time, because in football you think one thing and then another happens.”

The episode from Var

“I didn’t see him – Allegri commented in the mixed zone, with the other TVs -, the referee decided and we accepted. Maybe you could score with Cuadrado, you could score earlier, at 0-0, with Rabiot , too many times we make mistakes in front of the goal and we need to improve on this “.
