Allegri hails Juventus courage after reaching Champions League final

Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri hailed their courage for victory over Real Madrid in their Champions League semifinal.

Juve had won the first leg 2-1 in Turin and reached the final with a 1-1 draw at the Bernabeu.

"I have an extraordinary group of players. It was an impressive semi-final with chances for both sides, though we should've done more with our opportunities in the first half," Allegri told Sport Mediaset.

"We've earned our place in the Final and now that we're there we hope to do well! "I think it is also important for Italian football than one of our teams is back in the Champions League Final."
