Juventus coach Max Allegri insists they finished "third" this season after their 1-0 win against Udinese.

The result sees Juve end the campaign in seventh place, due to the 10 point penalty ruling for the club's capital gains investigation.

“I am not talking about the match, nor the third place, which was an improvement on last season," said Allegri.

“I just came here to thank the lads and all those who worked with me at the Continassa training camp. I am truly proud of this team, these men, players, kit staff, physios and everyone who worked all year with professionalism and patience. We end the season here. The rest does not count.

“This was a difficult year, but also a wonderful one. The game was largely irrelevant, I just want to thank all those who worked with me at the Continassa."

He added, "The club was close to me. The season is over and we are all tired. There were some mistakes, but we were also fortunate to make the most of the great work from the youth team, so there were positives too.

“The 10-point penalty was not our fault, so I took the team to third place on the field and nobody can take that away from me."
