Giorgio Chiellini said Juventus “did everything we said we shouldn’t do” in their 1-0 defeat to Olympiacos.
“We certainly didn’t deserve to lose this game, as we created so many chances in the last half-hour and the goal seemed to be cursed,” he told Sport Mediaset.
“We need a more thorough analysis and must take responsibility for a poor first half, where we did everything we said we shouldn’t do, including concede counter-attacks.
“It’s a shame, as Olympiacos couldn’t really trouble us any other way and we knew that was going to be the situation.”
Juventus now have three points along with Malmo, while Atletico Madrid and Olympiacos are top with six points.
“Our destiny is still in our hands, but we did not expect to be in this situation after three games, nor should we be,” continued Chiellini.
“We lacked some luck so far, but it’s also fair to say we made mistakes and need to take responsibility. They were the same mistakes we made against Sassuolo” data-scaytid=”18″>Sassuolo on Saturday.
“Our first month was fantastic apart from the defeat to Atletico Madrid, where I saw a Juventus team that showed character, took control and deserved more than even just a point.
“I think we need to step up a gear, as after the break for international duty we lost the momentum we had in that opening month.”
