Juventus manager Massimiliano Allegri has praised Ajax midfielder Frenkie de Jong following the draw between the two sides in the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals on Wednesday.
The Italian outfit took the lead in Amsterdam following a trademark header from Cristiano Ronaldo, although the hosts equalised early in the second period through David Neres. It means the score is 1-1 ahead of Tuesday's second leg in Turin.
Speaking after the game, Allegri detailed the midfield battle as a key area and commented on how they struggled to contain Ajax starlet De Jong, per UEFA.
