Allegri: Juventus thought the game was won
After conceding two late goals which led Parma to a 3-3 draw, Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri lamented his side’s second half performance.
The Bianconeri were knocked out of the Coppa Italia by Atalanta 3-0, and conceded another three goals against the Crociati, the first time they have conceded six in two consecutive matches in the same season since October 2013.
“In the first half the team had a good game and we’re also good in defense,” Allegri told the press.
“We went missing a little in the second half, especially in the final 15 minutes. Two vertical balls got past the defence.
“Both [Joao] Cancelo and [Leonardo] Spinazzola did well, except for a few moments such as in the build up to the second goal.
“Then in the last minutes [Mario] Mandzukic played a ball which led to us conceding.
“We paid for those moments. Now we have a week to get back working as we are used to.
“I’m sorry we lost two points, as we did a lot wrong which evening.
“It’s the defensive phase which leads you to winning games, and we thought we had it easy once we scored the third goal.
“In Rome against Lazio we didn’t deserve to win and we did. In Bergamo we played badly and paid for it.
“Today the team did well but we drew.”
