Juventus defender Leonardo Bonucci hailed their performance for victory over AC Milan.

Bonucci won 3-1 at San Siro on Wednesday night.

“We came here aware it was a very, very important game, especially after this afternoon's results," the captain told Sky Sport Italia.

“We did well to control the game from start to finish. We created a great deal and only conceded after our mistakes.

"We knew Milan could hurt us with their counter-attacks, but we were solid and worked as a team. This is the spirit we need going forward."
