Bonucci: Torino were lucky against Juventus

Leonardo Bonucci felt Juventus were the architects of their own demise, after his side lost 2-1 against Torino on Sunday afternoon.

The defeat marked Torino’s first derby victory in 20 years, as Juventus slumped despite having taken the lead through Andrea Pirlo.

Bonucci blamed himself on the mistake that allowed Matteo Darmian to equalise, but maintained that Torino were lucky to have come away with all three points.

“The goal from Darmian was my fault,” Bonucci said to Sky Sport Italia.

“I had stopped at the moment of the shot when I should have followed through instead. If I had not stopped, then I could have maybe gotten to Darmian and block him from shooting.

“Torino were lucky on the day and more clinical whenever they had opportunities.

“Today we paid for some carelessness as we could have done better to manage our lead.”
