Massimiliano Allegri irked by "naive" Juventus

Massimiliano Allegri airs his frustration after watching his "naive" Juventus team throw away Italian Super Cup success in their defeat to Napoli.

Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri has claimed that naivety cost his team glory in Monday night's Italian Super Cup defeat to Juventus in Doha.

Carlos Tevez had given the Bianconeri a 1-0 half-time lead, but Gonzalo Higuain cancelled out the opener on 68 minutes to send the clash into extra time.

Tevez gave his side the advantage again in the additional 30-minute period, but his compatriot levelled up with two minutes remaining, before Juve's Simone Padoin missed the decisive spot kick in the penalty shootout.

"It was a game between two teams who played expansively," Allegri told Rai Sport.

"Unfortunately, we had three match-points from the penalty spot, and we had the game in our hands until a few minutes from the end.

"I'm sorry because we had the game in our hands and we lost the goal in such a naive way."

The Turin giants sit top of Serie A.
