Massimiliano Allegri, coach of Juventus, spoke to DAZN microphones at the end of the match lost at the Maradona against Napoli: "With McKennie and Rabiot missing, both Miretti, who has over 60 appearances for Juventus, and Alcarez, in his first experience on the pitch, played a remarkable match."

Regardless, it was rewarding to watch the team hold each other together defensively; we faced critical moments, but I don't think they had any clear-cut opportunities in front of Szczesny. We missed some opportunities when we focused too much on getting to the heart of the play quickly, but we created favorable situations when we spread the play out immediately.

"We could have done more and the defeat is disappointing, especially considering our demanding schedule, which should put us in the Champions League zone.

There is room for improvement in several areas, and the experience of playing these matches will make us more solid in defense and more alert in critical moments."

"On the other hand, it's encouraging to note that this evening may have seen the youngest Juventus team in its history, with six players born between 2005 and 2003 on the pitch. This reflects effective work, and the aim is to ensure that next year we start with players who have already gained significant experience in this championship and who have undoubtedly grown."

"We are disappointed and angry because the opponent took the initiative and attacked us vigorously.

We have to do better in these situations. Szczesny saved a poorly taken penalty; if it had been taken well, the ball would have gone out for a corner. It's a difficult time, but I see these challenges as phases of growth.

Now we have a crucial match against Atalanta, a direct clash in which we must get points."
