Torino striker Andrea Belotti happy with goal for Juventus draw

Torino striker Andrea Belotti was delighted with his goal in their 1-1 draw against Juventus on Friday night.

Matthijs de Ligt opened the scoring before Belotti found an equaliser for Toro.

He later said, “In the celebration there was everything, there was a desire to make a great performance. It's a shame we didn't win, Torino played a great game and I think if we won we wouldn't have stolen anything. Surely the goal is important for me and for the whole team, I'm called upon for this.

“It's been a long time, I had two months full of injuries that kept me out for a long time but I kept working hard. When I came back with the team everything was easier, also thanks to the coach who put me on the pitch today and believes in me as in the rest of the teammates."

Belotti was asked if this was his last derby in Turin.

“I don't know, but if it's the last one I'm proud of myself and my teammates because we played a great game."
