Juventus matchwinner Matthijs de Ligt was happy with victory over Torino.

De Ligt avoided giving away another penalty for handball, then scored the winner.

I am really happy, of course. It was a really important game, as Inter won also. We won 1-0 and it was my goal, so really special," the defender told DAZN.

I am just standing like this and the ball hit me. I knew immediately it was not a penalty, because the rules are if my arms are down here, it's not a penalty.

Obviously, when you come to a new club, it's always going to be hard. It's going well, the guys made me feel welcome and I think I'm improving every game.

I hope that I showed tonight what I can bring to the team. My teammates are really nice, Higuain gave me an amazing assist and I'm really happy."
