Juventus coach Andrea Pirlo admitted frustration with his players after their 1-1 draw with Fiorentina.
Substitute Alvaro Morata scored with what appeared to be a wayward cross-shot to cancel out Dusan Vlahovic's Panenka-style penalty for Fiorentina.
“It was a horrible first half. We should've started in a different way, because this was a fundamental fixture in the race for the Champions League places, but we were too slow, our distances were all wrong and we were always second to the ball," Pirlo, who employed a 3-5-2 formation on the day, told Sky Italia.
“After Danilo's injury yesterday, we changed to three at the back, with Aaron Ramsey and Dybala between the lines. It didn't work, so we introduced Morata after the break to give us a change of pace.
“Our first half was bad, the second a little better, but it still wasn't good enough. We tried one thing and ended up doing something completely different, but we adjusted to the way we have done throughout the season and it went better."
