After the defeat to Manchester United in the Champions League, Juventus is set to face another important match, this time in the Serie A, against Milan. Bianconeri coach Massimiliano Allegri presented the match in the press conference, starting from one of the 'ex' of the game, Gonzalo Higuain: "Higuain is a great signing for Milan, he is one of the best strikers in the world. He will have the desire to do well against his former team, so I expect him to play a super game".
The coach also commented the United game, with his team dropping three points in the dying minutes of the game: "The only thing that went wrong on Wednesday was reading the moment after Manchester United's equaliser. We should have managed the game better, we got too emotional instead. That defeat was luckily not that significant in regards to the group standings. We are not used to losing, so we have to keep doing what we have done so far rather than bouncing back"
On the Rossoneri bench there will be one of his former players at Milan, Gennaro Gattuso: "I'm not surprised by what he is doing, he has improved a lot. He is transparent, he plays good footbal. He is one of the best young coaches right now, he deserves credit".
While Milan will have many players sidelined due to injuries, Juventus will have almost everyone available for the big match: "Mandzukic? He could play tomorrow, he neede some rest to recover mentally. Same thing for Matuidi, he would need some rest but I don't have alternatives in his position"
