Goalkeeper Wojciech Szczęsny says it made a change to see an a late equaliser cancelled against Juventus: “It usually happens to us.” The Bianconeri keeper was speaking with DAZN after their 1-0 win over Fiorentina and discussed the attacking trident used by coach Max Allegri and how he views the 15-point penalty that pushed the club down to 10th in the standings.
“When you win the game 1-0 with a goal cancelled in the 90th minute it’s exciting. The three points are fundamental to us, given the situation. This is the first time it happens in our favour, a goal cancelled in the 90th minute. It usually happens to us. Let’s enjoy this victory, which was also a bit lucky.
“We played a good first half, creating several set-pieces chances. In the last twenty minutes we needed to be more compact and have the humility to defend. We brought the result home, even in a slightly chaotic way, but that’s all that matters.”
“The points penalty? Everyone had a different reaction. I was nervous for a couple of days, then I got up one morning and looked at the standings with the 15 points won on the field. ”
“Against Atalanta I made a serious mistake. I’m looking for a mental balance to arrive at matches at my best.”
