Juventus message sent by Gatti and Conceicao: ‘Never give in, fight against everyone’

Juventus message sent by Gatti and Conceicao: ‘Never give in, fight against everyone’ Federico Gatti insists the late Juventus equaliser confirms his ‘history, as I never give in, I fight against everyone and everything,’ while Francisco Conceicao claims Milan ‘did nothing.’ It was a dramatic night in Turin , as Alphadjo Cisse had opened the scoring somewhat against the run of play with a well-taken solo effort, controlling the Samuel Chukwueze cross-field pass and drilling through Pierre Kalulu’s legs. However, after Francisco Conceicao thumped the woodwork, Juve got their late equaliser in stoppages through a Gatti header on the Teun Koopmeiners cross.

It is also notable that both goals came off the bench, with Cisse and Gatti making an impact as substitutes. “During the 90 minutes, I feel the truth is that we deserved to win the game,” Conceicao told DAZN Italia. “Milan scored the goal, but did absolutely nothing else. I hit the post, Fede scored, so it was in a way good that we didn’t lose, but we deserved all three points.” TURIN, ITALY – SEPTEMBER 06: Alexis Saelemaekers of Milan is challenged by Francisco Conceicao of Juventus during the Serie A match between Juventus and AC Milan at Allianz Stadium on September 06, 2026 in Turin, Italy.

I know, this is football, I am working to make the difference with those 5-10 centimetres and get it into the net.”
