Parma, 23 April 2025 - Cristian Chivu's post-match words after Parma 1-0 Juventus, on Serie A 2024/25 Matchday 33.

“I hope that this will become a regular occurrence in my career, but also for the boys who showed their heart and their drive to climb the table. I am happy for them and for the great crowd here at the Tardini. It is always great to win against Juve. We must be happy with ourselves. It wasn't easy today as after a couple minutes we lost two players and we had to make adjustments, moving Keita into central midfield even though he didn't fully understand his task. We struggled a little, but they did well to understand the changes quickly and grew into the game. We tried to put pressure on a strong team like Juve. Serie A is never easy and we always look to plan for who we have ahead of us, and I am happy the boys played well and that they showed their spirit and their heart, as well as their game understanding. I am very happy with these last two games and a half: I'm talking about the second half against Inter, the game against Fiorentina, and today as we haven't conceded. This is the whole team's work and the whole group are doing great things. They deserve our praise. Leoni? He, and the whole team, must stay level-headed, today they played great. Then he played as a full-back, before returning to the centre. He doesn't seem his age but the most important thing is that he has room to improve, but he deserves his praise and the man of the match award. I was doing my homework and I showed them the errors that they made, as there were a few. We are happy for the fans as they were magnificent, but we were thinking of the table and this season. We have five games to go and we must take more points to stay in this league.'
