Rugani welcomes an important three points

Daniele Rugani, who was in the starting line-up, expressed a great deal of satisfaction after Juventus’ 1-0 win at the Marassi.

“It was not straightforward at all. Samp created real problems for us. These three points are big in our push to win the league title,” he said.

“I was ready when called upon; it wasn’t easy but it went well. Above all, however, I’m happy with how the team as a whole performed. We won the game in the Juve way, against a purposeful Samp team.”

“After a great first half, when we didn’t manage to close the game out, they came at us and caused us problems. This win shows just how much we want to win our sixth consecutive Scudetto.”
