Conte insists Juventus do not have title won yet

Juventus boss Antonio Conte insists the title is not wrapped up after victory over Sassuolo.

Juve won 3-1 at Sassuolo last night, with Carlos Tevez and Fernando Llorente both on the scoresheet.

Conte said: "No, it was not a Scudetto celebration, as there's still a chance for those chasing us, so we have to finish it off definitively next week.

"We certainly made a big step forward, but those behind us have every right to continue believing."

Conte celebrated with a Jose Mourinho-style knee slide after Fernando Llorente's third goal.

"What was going through my mind was that we were making a very important step towards a historic Scudetto, as it'd be the third in a row.

"I always had a certain attitude, right from when I was at Arezzo. I was always passionate and enthusiastic as a player and continue that way as a Coach.

"I live my profession with great enthusiasm and participation, which I think the players appreciate, as I am there fighting with them on the field, in good times and bad."
