Juventus assistant manager Marco Landucci says they won't dwell on the refereeing decisions after defeat at Lazio.

Landucci took charge as coach Max Allegri was suffering from flu.

Referring to Sergej Milinkovic-Savic's opener for Lazio, he later said, “The referee decides. Juve fans would say it was a foul, Lazio fans would say it wasn't, but the only opinion that matters is that of the referee.

“All I can say is that our first half was below par, whereas we did much better after the break, deserved to score again and the draw would've been the fair result.

“As usual, we accept the result on the field. Our defenders were in the right positions, if the referee blows his whistle then it ends there, but he didn't. We don't stir up controversy over these things.

“Chiesa and Paredes did well off the bench, we had a good second half, but were only missing the goal – and that's not just a detail."

The appeal against their 15 point penalty will be heard on April 19.

Landucci added, “We must always be optimistic, we wait for the sentence, we know that we picked up 59 points on the pitch, we've officially got 44 now. We'll wait and see."
