Juventus defender Medhi Benatia hails their winning culture

Juventus defender Medhi Benatia hailed the club's winning culture after victory over Hellas Verona.

Juve finished the season with the league and Cup double.

“It was a success for the whole team. During the season, people criticised and said we didn't play beautiful football, but in reality it's because the others hope someone else will win after six years, yet at the end we always win," Benatia told Sky Sport Italia.

“There were many great moments, but the defeat to Napoli left me sad. I was doing well, a draw was the right result, but then I lost Kalidou Koulibaly and I was really demoralised. We managed to win the title anyway, the others had their celebration all ready, but at the end of the day we're the ones celebrating."
