Juventus coach Allegri: Too many risks

Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri was left frustrated with his players after defeat to Torino.

Andrea Pirlo gave Juve the lead, but they were over-run by Matteo Darmian and Fabio Quagliarella.

Allegri said: "Compared to recent outings, this was actually one of our better performances. We were a bit unlucky in the finishing and it's a shame we didn't emerge with a positive result, as I feel we deserved one.

"Paradoxically, we still 'earned' points off Lazio today, as they drew with Chievo.

"Once we had taken the lead, we went looking for trouble that could've been avoided. Torino were sitting back and we just had to keep the ball, nothing would've happened.

"We sparked their counter-attacks, which we shouldn't have done, but also created so many chances and were unfortunate to hit the woodwork three times."
