Allegri responds to Sergio Ramos doping allegations and praises Ronaldo

After defeating Spal 2-0 at the Allianz Stadium, Massimiliano Allegri spoke to the press and reflected on the victory of his team as well as other interesting topics, such as the currently discussed doping allegations against Real Madrid's Sergio Ramos.

"Douglas Costa? He started off the season well, then those incidents made him stall for a while and today, even on a mental level he did well. This is important," he said.

"Ronaldo? He had a good match with so much quality, even during the second goal. Bentancur? e has improved a lot in the possession phase. Today there were a couple of situations where he should have done better. Rugani had a good game, like Benatia against Milan

"Rotation? I look at the opposing team's characteristics, but I make the choices above all on the psychological and motivational level. Sometimes a little time on the bench is not bad, because the players can rediscover the motivations and these make the difference.

"The Ramos doping case in Cardiff? I do not care about it, it is not about me and it is about an incident from two years ago. My thought today goes to Mazzarri for the health problems he has," Allegri concluded.
