were made to wait to secure a 1-0 victory over
Milan on Saturday.
The Argentine struck his second league goal of
the season, his fourth in all competitions, after a
superb pass from Paul Pogba, leaving Christian
Abbiati on the floor as he fired home from close
range in the 71st minute.
Tevez had not featured much in the earlier
proceedings but Juve went close on a number of
occasions through Roberto Pereyra, Giorgio
Chiellini and Fernando Llorente.
Like in their victory over Malmo in the UEFA
Champions League Massimiliano Allegri's side
needed to be patient to maintain their 100 per
cent start in all competitions.
Nigel de Jong paid particularly close attention to
Tevez but, like his team-mates, he remained
patient and when his opportunity came he took
full advantage to devastating effect.
"There weren't many opportunities today
because De Jong was always waiting for me," he
told Sky Sport Italia.
"We expected a game like this, as Milan were
coming off two wins, but we had confidence and
were always in the match
"I managed to score eventually and I am happy."
Juventus remain top of the table after the win
and are yet to concede a goal in their three Serie
A matches so far this season.
