Juventus blame Celtic for defeat at Roma

|

Juventus newsJuventus boss Antonio Conte blamed fixture congestion after watching his side lose 1-0 away to Roma last night.

The exertions of blocking, barging, pushing and man-handling Celtic players at set generic cialis pieces took their toll as Francesco Totti’s 55th minute wonder goal settled the issue and gave Roma their first win of the year.

Napoli can cut Juve’s lead down to two points by beating Sampdoria today with mixed up Conte losing track of time after his side played three games in EIGHT days- Saturday, Tuesday, Saturday;

“We’re not happy about playing on the Saturday and having three games in seven days,” Conte whinged on the back of wins over Fiorentina and Celtic.

“That tiredness from playing those three games against big teams is the only excuse I can give as tonight we didn’t play as a team, and when we don’t play as a team anyone can beat us.

“I hope that in the future when they’re organising fixtures that there will a little bit of respect for a team that is representing Italy in Europe.”

Roma legend Totti said: “This is a team that every time it comes out onto the pitch it looks to give its best for itself and for the fans, and that recently we haven’t been able to do.

“Tonight we had the character to beat a really good team. It’s easy to celebrate after a win like that. We’ve got to think about next week and the week after that. We all did well.”

    What a shame.

    Here’s hoping they suffer many, many defeats in the weeks to come, including a heavy defeat when the Bhoys visit there in early March. All fanstasy dreamworld stuff, of course, but that’s why we’re Celtic!! If we get a German referee we might just get our wish… but then again with Platini already guaranteeing the Old Lady a spot in the last 16 he’ll probably get Conte to ref it… or Jeff Winters!! 😉

    Might as well give them a taste of their own medicine and start inflicting injustices on them in the return leg. Drop like flies in the box or when touched outside it. Let’s see just how they can take it. Might as well make them uncomfortable if we’re going out. We’ve scored three goals away from home before this season. This isn’t over.

    Juventus were too good for Celtic , Get over it and move on.
    We would not be complaining if we had gotten away with all the crap that went on.

    Getting to the last 16 is a great feat for the club and will keep the club healthy for some time to come.

    We’re well used to being cheated we’ve overcome this before.
