Conte delighted with crucial Juventus win

Juventus coach Antonio Conte was delighted with victory over Livorno.

Juve won 2-0 thanks to goals from Carlos Tevez and Fernando Llorente.

"It's certainly an interesting run of results. The lads are doing something great, even if we are only in Week 13," Conte told Sky Sport Italia.

"We're laying the foundations for the future, but Roma and Napoli are also going very strong and will be up there.

"I liked the performance today, as in this type of game after Real Madrid, Napoli and international duty, a tiny bit of arrogance or complacency can sneak in, but they resisted that.

"We risked hardly anything at the back and earned a very important victory. It's tough against a team that defends with 10 men and focuses on the counter-attack. At half-time we discussed what wasn't working and did a lot better to find space after the break."
