Juventus striker http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Luca-Toni-c22526 keen to score and celebrate against Fiorentina – Serie A news
Juventus striker Luca Toni has said that he will not be reluctant in celebrating if he scores a goal for the Old Lady against his former outfit Fiorentina.
Juve visit the Artemio Franchi this weekend to face-off against their bitter rivals and the team is looking forward to stealing a victory from the hosts.
The former Voila striker said that he has spent a great period of his career at the club but that was past and now he is focused on winning for the Old Lady.
The talismanic forward is expected to start alongside http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alessandro-Matri-c4733 in the upcoming game. Toni scored the winning goal against Genoa recently and is expected to be promoted to start for the Old Lady.
While talking to the media, Toni said, “It won’t be just any old game for me. I had two exceptional seasons at Fiorentina. However, should I score against them then I will celebrate because celebrating is not lacking respect to your former fans.”
Luca Toni played for Fiorentina between 2005 and 2007 and from 67 appearances, he has scored a total of 47 goals. The prolific striker left the La Voila on 30 May, 2007 to join the Bundesliga outfit Bayern Munich. Toni joined the Lady Killers in 2011 during
the winter transfer window on 7 January and the hitman has scored twice already in his 8 appearances in the 2010-11 season.
Juventus currently lie 7th in the League with 51 points and the team has been aiming for the last UEFA Champions League berth at the fourth place. Being 6 points adrift of their target, the La Vecchia Signora would need a perfect ending to the
season and would require winning all the 6 remaining games in the term.
Talking about Juve’s chances of earning the qualification spot for the Champions League next season, the right winger Milos Krasic said that winning six games straight is not possible. Krasic has given up the hope for the European Cup as Udinese, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roma-c31603 and
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lazio-c39775 all are in a better position to compete for the 4th spot in the League.
Talking to the media, the winger said, “We have to take home six victories and then hope that we get a little help with other results. It would be a failure to not qualify for the Champions League. Missing out on it would hardly be a success for a club like
Juventus.”
