Juventus coach bored by AC Milan Muntari goal criticism

Published on: 14 April 2012

Juventus coach Antonio Conte reckons Massimiliano Allegri should stop complaining about Sulley Muntari's ghost goal as he is boring the public.

In a 1-1 clash between Scudetto challengers Juventus and AC Milan in February, the Ghanaian had a perfectly good goal not given, and after a much-publicised discussion on the matter Conte is of the opinion that now everyone has had enough.

"Do the words of Allegri annoy me? It is more like this topic has become so boring," he said.

"This issue has become deathly dull.

"After our game against Parma we raised a problem, we were told to keep quiet, that we must be silent, and we were.

"Others, however, speak every three days and keep repeating the same things. Honestly, all this is boring. This is football, however, we must move forward."

Juventus currently hold a one-point lead over Milan in the standings ahead of a trip to bottom side Cesena on Sunday on what will be a synthetic pitch.

"We will do some tests today on that turf. The positive thing is that there are no holes, but the bounce and speed of the ball do change a little bit. From here to the end of the season they are all very important matches. We mustn't underestimate anyone, as often points are dropped against virtually relegated teams," Conte warned.

"I expect my men to face Cesena as if this were the game of their lives, because that is what it represents to us. All the remaining matches are games of our lives."
