Juventus coach Pirlo delighted with victory over Crotone

Juventus coach Andrea Pirlo was delighted after their 3-0 defeat of Crotone.

Cristiano Ronaldo scored a brace before Weston McKennie completed the scoreline.

Pirlo said, “We started a bit nervous, maybe the last defeats had made us nervous.

“Then the goals helped us and gave us peace of mind.

“The rest we managed well. The start was not the best, the important thing was to bring home the three points."

Federico Chiesa impressed at right and Pirlo believes he's better on that side.

“He is better on the right because of his way of playing and attacking one-on-one," he said. “But he did well on the left too, he manages to cross well with his left foot, but his position is right winger, and we try to get him to play there."
