The Old Lady are now five points behind Inter following their 2-1 win last night.
“I am still working hard during the week but the knee is still giving me some problems,” declared the Italian to Sky Sport Italia.
“In the second half I managed to break free a little, and I’m delighted to have scored such an important goal for the side.
“For our moral this victory is very important. We have beaten a very solid Inter side and it hasn’t been easy to stay behind them in the past few years.
“Now we are back in the hunt and not forgetting Milan who have come back into the race with some convincing performances in recent weeks.
“I am very happy for Juventus and especially her fans who behaved impeccably tonight and stayed behind the side in the moments of difficulty.”
