As Barcelona, Juventus will aim at a historical treble with the Champions League Final on June 6th. It is the first time that both teams can do it for the Final and really highlights the quality of the Italian; unbeatable in Italy and very realistic in Champions League.
Reactions after the win:
Coach Allegri
“It wasn’t easy to do the league and cup double. Now we’ll see what the next final has in store for us.
“Lazio were superb, they really are in fine fettle. They were a tad unlucky too, but as we all know moments turn matches in football. Before they hit both posts we had chances of our own.”
All the lads did brilliantly. It wasn’t an easy game. Lazio made a strong start then we came into it more in the second half. Going all the way in three competitions as we have is no simple task. We put in a magnificent performance tonight. The players were fantastic.”
Defender Chiellini:
We put in a brilliant performance against a side on good form that caused us problems,” he explained. “We knew that coming in, we imagined it would be tough but we fought and stayed together throughout. Plus we’ve got players who can turn games in an instant.”
We’d waited 20 years for this, we wanted it and deserved it and Berlin is still some way off. We’ll celebrate winning this.”
