en minutes was all second-half substitute Simone Zaza needed to make his mark on Sunday’s encounter with Palermo at the Stadio Renzo Barbera. Just as he had done at the end of September against Sevilla, Zaza stepped off the bench late on to apply the finishing touches to a resounding 3-0 victory.

Juve’s summer arrival from Sassuolo however is always hungry for more. Speaking to journalists after the final whistle he began, “I would like to get myself on the scoresheet more often but that for me is more of a motivating factor than something that will get me down.

“This was a big game for us tonight and we’re starting make up ground on the league leaders. I’ll enjoy this moment though, make no mistake about that.”

Following this evening’s 3-0 victory, the Bianconeri are now on a five-match winning run in all competitions, a hot streak that, according to Simone, demonstrates that momentum and confidence are beginning to grow within the squad.

“We’re getting better with every passing week, no doubt about it. We’ve had our critics this season and that has motivated us to raise our game. We took it all in and now the results are starting to come.

“We’re doing well at the moment but our goal is still the same: to be in the top three before the winter break.”
