Juventus coach Max Allegri had words of support for AC Milan after yesterday's 3-1 win. Allegri was sacked by Milan last season.

He said: "I think this Milan has some excellent players and above all improved over the January transfer market. Let's not forget how many players are out injured. It is a moment of difficulty, but with balance they can get back into the race for Europe.

"Juve-Milan is never easy and these were three important points. It only takes a minute to turn the psychological strength around and if we had drawn a second consecutive match it would've allowed Roma to close up."
