Allegri cautions players as Juve overtakes Napoli

massimiliano-allegri-juventus_ixb3nla0o76s13h3m3ovz7yakMASSIMILIANO Allegri has stressed Juventus have won nothing yet after beating Napoli 1-0 to go top of the Serie A table, but feels Saturday’s victory could be a psychological blow for their rivals in the title race.

A single Simone Zaza strike in the closing stages of the game was enough for the reigning champions to clinch a vital three points in Turin, although Allegri has warned his players that they cannot afford to get carried away.

“It was a very tactical game between two teams that deserve to be at the top of the table,” Allegri said at a media conference.

“Napoli put in a great performance, but we hardly gave away any chances. We got a good chance with (Paulo) Dybala and eventually got the goal. We coped well with Napoli’s pace.

“It wasn’t easy to win. It’s important to have gone top of the table, but there are still 13 games to go.
