Massimiliano ALLEGRI: “A draw is a fair result”

Juventus head coach Massimiliano Allegri praised the meeting with Inter (1:1) in the first semi-final of the Coppa Italia.

The game, we recall, ended in a conflict, when the striker of the Milan club Romelu Lukaku was first removed from the field, scoring a goal in the fifth compensated minute of the match. And then the red cards were seen by the defender of Juventus Juan Cuadrado – the author of another goal in the game, as well as the goalkeeper of the Milanese Samir Handanovich.

“I don’t know what happened there, since I went to the under-tribune room after the final whistle. A bit of chaos at the end of a balanced game. We knew it would be difficult. Inter had a difficult period, but they remained themselves, which they proved in this match. We added during the game and increased the number of players in the penalty area.

It’s annoying. The match is over. We needed to press higher. Kostic should have played smarter, be closer to Dumfries, then there was a naive mistake. All in all, a balanced match. A draw is a fair result. We understood that the second leg would be decisive, but a goal 20 seconds before the end of the match could have been avoided,” Allegri said.
