Gianluigi Buffon has hailed http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alessandro-Del-Piero-c4726 after the veteran striker’s goal secured the three points for Juventus in Derby d’Italia.
Juventus beat Inter Milan 2-0 in matchday 29 fixture of the season on Sunday, March 25. Martin Caceres and Del Piero scored in the second-half to guide the Turin giants to a win. The Old Lady maintain pressure on AC Milan, as they
remain only four points behind the leaders.
Buffon believes that the Rossoneri’s 2-1 win over AS http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roma-c31603 on Saturday made his team hungry to secure the three points. He believes that had his team not won the game, their Scudetto hopes would have dealt a serious blow.
The Italian international emphasised on the importance of the Derby d’Italia games, and insists that his side wanted to win it at any cost.
While talking to the reporters, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Gianluigi-Buffon-c14833 said:
“I like it when we play later, especially when the other team has won, because it adds that little spark of anxiety that I enjoy. Historically the Derby d’Italia is a special game, but we were also playing to win so we could keep
our hopes alive of troubling the side ahead of us. If we had failed to win tonight, those hopes would’ve been wiped out."
The former Parma shot-stopper went onto hail http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alessandro-c4710 Del Piero, and believes that the veteran striker has been phenomenal for the Turin giants. Del Piero has not been featuring regularly for Juve, but he has answered the manager’s
call whenever he has been asked.
“He is a great champion, but I’d like to point out how wonderfully professional Ale has been this year. He accepted this role and never made any trouble or controversy, working hard in training and repaying the Coach when called
upon.”
Buffon also praised http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 Milan for playing a wonderful game, and believes that the Nerazzurri were unlucky not to win.
La Vecchia Signora will face http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Napoli-c40003 in their next game at Juventus Stadium on Sunday, April 1st.
