Allegri: “It’s not that simple to win the Europa League”

In the difficulties involved in its conquest Europa League which is the only “road” for Juventus to exit the Champions League, said the coach of the “Bianconeri”, Massimiliano Allegri.

Speaking after the 3-0 win over Nantes to advance to the last 16 of the Europa League, the Italian coach first praised Angel Di Maria for scoring a hat-trick, then pointed out that some may have thought that it would be simple for her Juventus to conquer the second class European competition, but the strong teams it has, do not make it so simple.

“When you have a world champion like Di Maria, the whole team grows. You have to take advantage of that because he’s a great champion.”Allegri initially reported and continued:

“It is never easy to play in the European Cup. After our elimination from the Champions League, some might think that it would be a… walk in the park for Juventus to win the Europa League. But it’s not that simple. This game was an important game, but not perfect. We have to keep working, there are parts I didn’t like tonight. To go to the Champions League next season, we continue to gain points in the league, while we are in the semi-finals of the Coppa Italia. The Europa League currently seems to be the only way to the Champions League, but the conquest is not self-evident. At European level, there are very strong teams. We will try to win the title, but nothing and nobody says we will get there. Winning these matches is never easy. For the return of Paul Pogba, we will see in Turin. He could be fine for the game against Torino on Tuesday if everything goes well.” were the words of the 55-year-old coach.
