Juventus have once again looked inconsistent and slow, they couldn't find a goal against 10-man AC Milan in the semifinals which ended goalless before they made it to the Coppa Italia final on away goal rule


Thanks to goalie Gianluigi Buffon's several saves which prevented AC Milan from winning in full-time.

Juventus Manager Maurizio Sarri has said that Juventus don't have any tactical problems after falling in Coppa Italia 2019-20 Finals to Gennaro Gattuso's Napoli on penalties 4 - 2.

However, Sarri believes Juventus lack the 'sharpness' for individual skills to make the difference.

The Old Lady Boss has now lost two Finals this season, losing the Italian Supercup in December to Lazio.

“There is disappointment for the club, the lads and the fans, but at this moment we cannot do much more, because we are lacking sharpness,” Sarri told RAI Sport.

“We were missing a few players and had to make some different choices to usual, because our fitness levels are not optimal. We keep the ball well, but lack the sharpness to turn that into dangerous scoring opportunities.

“We are struggling to get past opposition players when taking men on. I don’t think we’re lacking determination, because we were totally concentrated for 90 minutes and you can’t do that without determination.

“I think the problem is the characteristics, because these are players accustomed to taking men on and at the moment that’s just not coming off.

"That just shows the lack of sharpness after such a long break.”

About Cristiano Ronaldo, he said: “He’s in the same shape as the others, like Paulo Dybala and Douglas Costa, he is lacking the sharpness to do what works best for him.

“I didn’t say much to the players after the game. I was angry and disappointed."
