Milan suffered a 2-0 defeat at the hands of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lazio-c39775 at Stadio Olimpico Rome on Wednesday, February 1. The Rossoneri could have gone on top of the table had they won the game, as Juve’s matchday fixture was abandoned due to heavy

While talking to the reporters, Del Piero, said,
“We went into this season white, in every sense, but we’re still first in the standings. The games last night left us still smiling about our ranking. With a point advantage and a game still to play, we must be good and exploit
the chance to stretch our lead, even if it is still too early to stop and look at the table.”
The 37-year-old is disappointed with the cancellation of the midweek game, and is hoping that the weather remains clear for the weekend game.
“We are already concentrating on the next game, the one on Sunday against Siena at the Juventus Stadium. Hopefully the weather will be better, in any case, we want to keep going!” added the former Italian international
Juventus will host Siena in their next game on Sunday, February 5. On the other hand, Milan will play http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Napoli-c40003 in their respective league game the same day.
