Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri was pleased with victory over Lazio.

Juve won 2-0 thanks to goals from Carlos Tevez and Leonardo Bonucci.

"I am happy with what the lads did, but not just tonight, throughout the campaign," Allegri told Sky Sport Italia.

"It was an important game and we showed maturity against a Lazio side that had been playing the best football in Italy until now.

"They were also more physically fit, as they have played far fewer games than us. This is when a team needs its maturity to control the tempo and make the most of its scoring opportunities.

"Tonight it wasn't just important to beat Lazio because they were second. Lazio are having an extraordinary campaign, as they conceded only two goals during their eight consecutive victories and had let in just 12 since they faced us last time.

"Obviously every time Lazio or Roma draw, the Scudetto finish line is reduced. I think we need two or three wins to seal it now."
