Angelo Alessio hails Juventus victory over Napoli

Juventus assistant coach Angelo Alessio believes that his side were deserved winners against Napoli in Serie A on Saturday.

Martin Caceres and Paul Pogba scored in the final 10 minutes in Turin to help the Italian champions defeat the Naples outfit 2-0.

"We played a great game, but Napoli too played a great game," said Alessio. "We have two different ideas on football: we have great organisation and prefer to be attacking throughout, while they prefer to play on the counter attack.

"We remained focused for the whole game and dominated possession. Napoli were only really dangerous with a [Edinson] Cavani free kick in the first half.

"Those are the facts after tonight's game and I want to give my compliments to the whole team. [Gianluigi] Buffon and [Mirko] Vucinic were not on the pitch but, I repeat, with our organisation any player can be decisive."

Juventus are now three points clear of Napoli in pole position in the Serie A table.
