Massimiliano Allegri spoke to Sky Sport after Juventus' victory against Empoli: "It was not a simple match because the game against Porto took away a lot of energy from us. We could have scored in the first half. In the second half Empoli lowered their level of intensity, and we went up a gear. I regret having conceded against Palermo, because otherwise, we could have went seven games without conceding a goal. Our advantage over Roma and Napoli? We must focus on ourselves. We still need to obtain a few victories, and today, we achieved one. Caldara? His is young and talented, and with Gasperini he will improve even further before he arrives at Juventus. How did I feel during the week before our participation in the Champions League? I only thought about preparing for the match in the best possible way. What happened with Bonucci was nothing out of the ordinary. I try to see the positive side of what transpired. It can be said that Bonucci and I gave a jolt to the team for the match against Porto."
