Juventus coach Allegri pleased with 'spirit' for victory over Bologna

Juventus coach Max Allegri is hoping for a fresh start after their 3-0 defeat to Bologna.

Filip Kostic scored his first goal for Juve, with Dusan Vlahovic and Arkadiusz Milik also scoring.

“I liked the spirit, the solidity of the team, apart from at the end of the first half, when we got a few attacking moves wrong. We should've slowed the tempo and kept the ball more in those situations," Allegri told DAZN.

“We hadn't won in a month, so it was good to have a clear and commanding victory. Now we need to keep a low profile, remember we're still a way back and above all have to get our Champions League back on track.

“It was difficult to predict quite such a strong impact, but we already knew Milik is a player who moves well, is intelligent, shakes off his markers and can play well with Vlahovic."

He added, “It was a good performance, I told the lads there is this desire to prove yourselves and try really hard, but that can be counter-productive. We needed patience and focus to build the performance and get the result.

“We hadn't won in a month and almost felt like we couldn't believe it when we got back to the locker room."
