Tiago Pinto reacts to Juventus’ overturned 15-point deduction

Roma General Manager Tiago Pinto was asked to share his thoughts on today’s verdict which overturned Juventus’ initial 15-point deduction.

The verdict effectively pushed Roma down to fourth in the Serie A table.


“I have to laugh in order not to cry. I’m not a lawyer, it’s not up to me to talk about the legal issues of the matter,” he told Sky Sport before the match with Feyenoord.

“As someone who works in football, for three months we have played with a league ranking that doesn’t match today’s reality, which means that the mechanism is wrong.”

“Dybala? I think this is one of his best seasons in recent years. The season is long. When he’s in pain, he needs to be managed. He is available and we hope he can give his contribution tonight too.”
