"Tonight was a beautiful night, full of emotion," Juventus coach Massimilano Allegri told Sky Sports Italia after the match. "Chiellini and Dybala's night."
"Dybala was an important player for seven years, I raised him because he was a kid at the time and the fans gave him the respect he deserved."
"It would be nice to finish with a win for them, but tonight's game sums up our season. We need to get used to winning again," continued the coach.
In that match, Juventus actually almost won. After winning 2-0 through goals from Dusan Vlahovic in the 10th minute and Alvaro Morata in the 36th minute, Juventus then conceded in the 51st minute due to an Alex Sandro own goal.
The victory that was in sight was broken after Sergej Milinkovic-Savic found the net for Mattia Perin in the 96th minute!
With this result, Juventus remains in fourth position with 70 points. While Lazio occupies fifth position with 63 points, while securing a ticket to the Europa League next season.
