Allegri led Juventus to defeat Inter Milan 2-0 on Sunday night and climb up to fifth place in Serie A, while Lazio defeated Roma in the local derby.
Adrien Rabiot and Nicolo Fagioli scored in the second half as Juve secured their fourth victory and fourth clean sheet in as many league matches.
“The season is long, we had a few hiccups, above all in the Champions League.
“There is joy in beating a great side like Inter, but then we immediately need to get back the focus for the next two matches and at that point can draw a line under 2022,” Juve coach Massimiliano Allegri said.
Meanwhile, unbeaten Serie A leaders Napoli made it nine wins in a row on Saturday with an impressive 2-1 win at second-placed Atalanta.
Striker Victor Osimhen and midfielder Eljif Elmas scored for Napoli, who now have a six-point lead at the top.
Elsewhere, Lazio moved up to third place after a 1-0 derby win against local rivals Roma, with Felipe Anderson scoring in the first half.
“It wasn’t the most beautiful match but it did drain physical and mental energy,” Lazio coach Maurizio Sarri told DAZN.
