Conte hails his "great" Juventus team after victory over Genoa

Antonio Conte described Juventus as a "great team" after victory over Genoa.

Andrea Pirlo struck a last minute winner for Juve after Gigi Buffon had saved a Genoa penalty.

"Inevitably coming here and winning in Genoa against a team that played the game of their lives, after our run of matches with tired players I couldn't rotate, it means only a great team could've done it," Conte told Sky Sport Italia.

"There were also some controversial incidents, but we know referees are humans and can make mistakes, so I compliment the officials."
