Juventus coach Ciro Ferrara was pleased with his side's 1-0 win over Chievo Verona, as the Bianconeri began the season by collecting three points.
Juve played especially well during the first-half, when they took the lead through Vincenzo Iaquinta, but visibly tired in the latter stages of the match.
"After a good start we experienced some fatigue and that's why we were stretched [in the second-half]," he explained to Datasport following the victory.
"In any case, Juve have shown they can suffer and still take home three important points."
The former center-back was pleased with the contributions of midfielder Tiago and Christian Poulsen, who have not been in good form since their careers brought them to Turin.
"I'm happy for those who went through a hard time last year and are now recovering. Both the Portuguese and Danish player had an excellent match," he concluded.
