Allegri: Juventus not thinking about Madrid yet

The 47-year-old has insisted the Turin outfit remain focused on their domestic duties for now and expects a good performance against Fiorentina.Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri has insisted that the Turin side are not thinking about their Champions League semi-final against Real Madrid yet as they focus on wrapping up the Serie A title as soon as possible.



The titleholders hold a 14-point lead over second-placed Lazio with six more games to go and are edging ever closer to a fourth successive title.
Juventus were beaten 2-1 by Torino at the weekend, but Allegri was happy with their performance and wants to see his side take a step nearer the Scudetto before turning their thoughts to Madrid.
"We're not thinking about Real Madrid yet. We must prepare as best we can for the match against Fiorentina," Allegri said at a press conference.
"It will be difficult, but we want to claim all three points, leaving us just one away from winning the title.
"Fiorentina will want to bounce back from three straight defeats. They're having a good season in Serie A and Europe.
"But we need to just think about ourselves and get these four points as soon as possible.
"Our performance against Torino was one of our best in recent times, even though the result doesn't reflect that. I'm expecting another decent display from the team on Wednesday."
