“As I said, it’s the choice of final ball when attacking we need to get right, but this team has heart and determination
. I always say that those who are not in this situation cannot understand what it is like. The team found itself with 15 points taken off, that is not easy, but we reached the Europa League quarter-finals, the Coppa Italia semi-final against this Inter and maintained the passion for what they are doing.
“Now we need to unite with our fans and start the push towards the end of the season.”
The appeal against the 15-point penalty will be heard on April 19, but even without that verdict going their way, Juve are still closing fast on the top four.
They now have 41 points, just seven behind
Milan in fourth place on 47, while Milan are on 48, Inter 50 and
Lazio now second on 52.
Without the penalty, Juve would be four clear in second place on 56 points.
