MASSIMILIANO ALLEGRI
"We knew we would face difficulties, Roma are a tough team, they don't give up. In the first half we could have done more, but they ran a lot, as was shown by the cramps many of their players had. By the end of the first half, they were already dropping back, with their midfielders, but unfortunately, we conceded a goal, in a situation where we could have defended better. Moise? He made a mistake, he apologised, but he made a mistake because he put the team in difficulty. It's a lesson to be learned.
"However, at the end of the game, I told the players they need to stay calm because we have 50 points. We need to recover, think about the Europa League and Serie A. They need to stay calm because in the history of football, I believe we've never seen the situation Juventus are facing this year. I must actually congratulate the team, we have important objectives to achieve, and a defeat cannot bring down what we're doing.
"We need to keep working on this, then what has happened and what will happen doesn't depend on the field. We need to finish the league among the top four, and for the moment, we're second."
