"We've been saying for a while that we keep doing this, we score early and then don't finish the games off, it's like a cut and paste of previous mistakes,"
"We dominate whole areas of games, it seems like we are in total control, and then there are moments of superficiality where we lose our way, misplace passes that are just incredible for the level of football we are playing at."
"We cannot seem to maintain that concentration, determination and grit for the whole game. Once we make those mistakes, the tension and fear sets in, the match goes back into the balance."
"A game like this one cannot end 1-0, we barely allowed them to get into our half, there were so many situations where we had two attacking options and always went for the third worst one."
Dusan Vlahovic scored after 12 seconds to give Juventus a 1-0 win over Lecce and strengthen their Champions League hopes. The goal was the fastest by a Juventus player in the three points per win era, surpassing Arturo Vidal’s earlier record. Juventus have earned the most points in Serie A over the last 10 matchdays and kept clean sheets in four consecutive away games for the first time since late 2022 to early 2023. Despite producing 2.16 expected goals from 15 shots, they scored only once and repeatedly made mistakes after taking the lead. Spalletti urged the team to finish games off and maintain concentration, determination, and grit for the full match.
