Massimiliano Allegri praised Juventus' battling qualities after it overcame adversity to claim a 2-1 win at Chievo on Sunday, but feels the club could have won by a bigger margin.
There were nine bookings in a sometimes bruising encounter, that began with Andrea Barzagli dislocating his shoulder while defending a corner.
That thrust Leonardo Bonnuci into action despite the Italy international suffering a thigh injury during the 1-1 Champions League draw against Lyon in midweek.
Mario Mandzukic opened the scoring seven minutes after halftime but Sergio Pellissier equalized for Chievo from the penalty spot.
Juventus responded swiftly through a wonderful Miralem Pjanic free kick and there could have been further goals as Stefano Sturaro and Juan Cuadrado went close as the clock ticked down.
