Allegri: We stayed alert and did well to win a tough game

After Juventus' 1-0 win over Lecce in Serie A, Arkadiusz Milik, Massimiliano Allegri and Federico Chiesa all spoke.

MASSIMILIANO ALLEGRI

"It was a tough game to win, particularly after Sassuolo and against a Lecce side that don't give a lot away. We were good when they dropped the pace, and we were very good when it came to being attentive and not switching off at all.

"[Arkadiusz] Milik grew into things in the second half, as did the whole team. We have to keep attentive until the very end.

"Now we have Atalanta, which is a direct battle with a strong team competing with us.

"[Federico] Chiesa is playing well and he's harder to mark in this position."

FEDERICO CHIESA

"I always look to give my all. I'm doing well physically, I'm very happy, and it's been a while since I played two games in such a short space of time. I agree with the coach about the position he sees as my best, and I always try to do my best when I play.

"In Reggio [Emilia] we conceded a fluke goal that changed the fate of the game, but today we went out with the right intention and we managed things well defensively.

"Our goal is to all pull in the same direction and to really push for our goal of finishing in the top four. Then, come March, we'll see..."

AREK MILIK

"It was an important goal to score because it gave us three points, and winning was fundamental after Sassuolo. I'm delighted to be off the mark for the season and goals bring confidence.

"We struggled a bit in the first half, but you have games like that. The important thing is that we got over the line to win, and we know that we can improve and play even better. We'll get there, it just takes a little time."
