Conte satisfied with Juve efforts

Juventus coach Antonio Conte is delighted with his side’s preparation for the second half of the Serie A season.

Conte has his team primed for this weekend’s match against Lecce following their training camp in the United Arab Emirates.

Juventus recorded a 7-1 friendly won over Al Hilal on Thursday to conclude their working visit, and Conte was pleased with his side’s performance in the UAE.

“We’ve worked hard and we’ve managed to stick to the program we came up with,” Conte said.

“And then we’ve seen ourselves surrounded by so much affection. Tonight (Thursday) at the stadium the fans even sang the chants that we usually hear in Italy. This must make us aware that Juve are loved all over the world.”

“It needs to be an added incentive for us to give our maximum in every game – starting from Sunday.”
