Antonio Conte believes that his Juventus players showed their "strength and maturity" against Cagliari and praises midfielder Arturo Vidal.

Juventus coach Antonio Conte has hailed his players for their fightback against Cagliari in Serie A on Friday.

The Italian champions came from a goal down to win against their 10-man hosts 3-1 away from home.

"Juventus responded very well," he told reporters. "In the first half Gigi Buffon made one save and they had a penalty but that was all. Everyone puts in the performance of their lives against us and are eager to prove a point, as shown by the fact at the end all the Cagliari players had cramp.

"[Arturo] Vidal didn't perform to his usual standards in the first half, but fought back after the break despite the missed penalty. He is someone I will always bring with me if going into war.

"My scream at the goal? That summed up everything that took us to this point. I above all must thank the lads. This was not easy, but a great show of our strength and maturity."

The result saw Juventus extend their lead at the top of the league table to 10 points.
