Motta, though, was not altogether enamoured by Juve's finishing on the whole, with his side racking up a series of missed chances, particularly in a dominant first half

Juventus manager Thiago Motta expressed concern over his side's inconsistency in front of goal after their hard-fought 1-0 win at lowly Cagliari in Serie A on Sunday. Motta watched his team secure a fourth consecutive league win in gritty fashion with a narrow victory in Sardinia but was critical of his side's lack of precision.

Thiago Motta is glad Juventus managed to beat Cagliari despite ‘wasting so many chances and inevitably suffering’ after the break, but outlines the ‘enormous potential’ of Kenan Yildiz.
