"Today we played a great game," Motta told DAZN. "Games like this are won with a lot of daily work from these guys whom I thank. They are improving because they work with a lot of commitment, overcoming the many difficulties we have had. Victories like these are the right reward."

Juventus' victory propelled them into the Serie A top four, breaking their streak of seven draws in their previous eight league games. Motta highlighted the team's improved defensive phase and their ability to maintain intensity and quality throughout the match.

"In the last match with Atalanta we made some technical errors that gave confidence to the opponent," Motta said. "Today the opposing team understands that they are facing a team with a good defensive phase, and they play good football by putting intensity and quality to be superior."

Motta also praised the performance of young player Samuel Mbangula, who opened the scoring for Juventus. He commended Mbangula's work ethic and his consistent contributions to the team.
