Juventus boss Conte: No Torino penalty

Juventus coach Antonio Conte refused to accept that Torino deserved a late penalty for yesterday's derby win.

Carlos Tevez secured a 1-0 victory for the Bianconeri, though Omar El Kaddouri appeared to be tripped by Andrea Pirlo in the final minutes.

Conte was shown the footage of the El Kaddouri incident from several different angles and sighed.

"Let's say El Kaddouri was prepared for it, but there was contact too. I'll admit anything could've happened there - a penalty or a booking for simulation. Thankfully, the referee made the right decision for us!" he laughed.

"Compliments to Torino for an extraordinary campaign and to Giampiero Ventura for his great work. I rarely give compliments, but they are well deserved in this case."
