The head coach of the Russian national team has spoken about the 2006 scandal that broke through the Serie A, and the two Scudetto that were awarded to Inter Milan.
The Calciopoli controversy was the biggest scoop of the time, and it plunged the Italian clubs in a negative light, and the courts were extremely tough in the verdicts that were given out against the clubs that were found guilty. The other big club to be
dished out the verdict of being guilty was Fiorentina who were docked points.
However, the toughest verdict was handed over to the giants from Turin, Juventus, who were demoted from the Serie A to the Serie B, as well as being docked points as part of their punishment. Along with this, the two Scudetto that the Turin outfit had won
during 2004-06 seasons was taken away from them, and were handed to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 Milan.
While commenting on the result of the Calciopoli, the former Juventus boss remarked that he still has the two medals that they won, and remarked that they were the best side in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Italy-c2926 at the time. He also remarked that they might have done better in the premier
European competition that is the Champions League, but remarked that the team was built on quality.
He was quoted to have said:
“I still have those two medals. We were the best side by some way and the only regret is that we didn’t do more in the Champions League. We had a team of quality, without which you don’t get results.”
While reflecting on the competition the Bianconeri giants have at this point in time; he went on to remark that it is not the same as the one they faced back in 2006. He pointed out to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lazio-c39775, Parma, AC Milan and Inter Milan being bigger threats then they
are now. He was quoted to have said:
“There isn’t a race. Juventus will win. In the past there was Cragnotti’s Lazio, Tanzi’s Parma, as well as Milan and Inter. Today, in Italy, Juve can do what they want.”
The Turin giants will be looking to prove their mettle against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 in the match later in the evening.
