Juventus and Italy midfielder Claudio Marchisio believes his team can still qualify for the Champions League after their crucial 1-0 win away to Lazio.
Juve have looked out of the running for several weeks but their victory at Rome's Stadio Olimpico on Monday night brought them to within four points of fourth.
Had they lost to Lazio, who sit fourth, they would have out of the running, but now they are dreaming about results going their way and a late run at a Champions League place.
They have three games left to make the dream a reality.
"It's still possible but there's still many things undecided," said Marchisio.
"We need to concentrate on ourselves and hope that the other results go our way."
"We'll work hard to earn nine points and what's more we've got a better head to head record than all the others."
Lazio currently hold that fourth spot by a point from Udinese and Roma and four ahead of outsiders Juve.
