Juventus coach Allegri hails his attack for AC Milan win

Juventus coach Max Allegri was delighted with his attacking players for their victory over AC Milan.

Juve won 2-0 thanks to goals from Mario Mandzukic and Cristiano Ronaldo.

Allegri enthused: “When Mandzukic, Ronaldo and Dybala are in attack, naturally it's going to be a little less ordered up there, but at the same time it also makes us less predictable for the opposition.

“We knew that we had more chances of causing Abate problems on the cross. Alex Sandro put a great cross on to the head of Mandzukic.

“Earlier this season, we tended to put the crosses in too low, but we're starting to lift them more now and make the most of Mandzukic's characteristics.

“Ronaldo is an atypical centre-forward, but still a centre-forward."
