The Bianconeri chief dedicates the success to the determination of players on the pitch; insists the time has come for the team to give their all for Scudetto.
Antonio Conte has warned his players against smugness amidst towering praises for the team, in order to avoid getting de-railed from their Scudetto dream.
The Old Lady’s latest win against AS http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roma-c31603 has extended their lead over AC Milan to three points, in the Serie A title race. With just five games left to be played until the end of the season, the Bianconeri are widely being tipped to get their hands on the
trophy at the end of the season.
The Bianconeri manager stated that the team is being extolled for their success, but warned that they should not let the praise dilute their focus from the challenge that lies ahead. The chief insisted that the season is still wide open, and things can change
dramatically for them if the team gets caught up in the frenzy of the newspapers.
The former Siena coach insisted that the team has earned their Champions League qualification, and should look to capture the Scudetto with continued intensity in their game.
While talking to the press, the 42-year-old said:
“The newspapers are today celebrating Juventus. If my players let themselves be influenced by these things then that would be a mistake, it would be like throwing away a season. After qualifying for the Champions League, we now have this opportunity for
the Scudetto. We can’t give up now.”
Juventus started the league with an outside chance for the title, but their six consecutive wins in the league have seen the Vecchia Signora rise to the top of the league table.
Conte insisted that the success is down to the players in the squad, who continued to grow in the face of adversity and challenges. He praised the team members for exhibiting a tremendous desire for success that has fuelled Juventus’s extraordinary campaign,
this season.
The Bianconeri chief insisted that the biggest achievement of the team is that they stood tall against the finest teams in the league, and stated that the time has come for him to recognise Scudetto as the fundamental aim of the season.
Juventus are the front-runners in the league, but still have five games to go before they can claim their 30th Serie A title.
