The Juventus midfielder dedicated his win to all Italians, and spoke about Ballon d’Or; while comparing the difference in playing styles between England and Germany.
The Italians have surpassed everyone’s expectations in the manner they have played in the tournament so far. Former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fabio-c13152 Capello, was thoroughly impressed by the humility and the work ethic shown
by the Italians, and went on to state that he was not expecting such unity within the group.
When quizzed whether he dedicated his win to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Adriano-c3773 Galliani or Andrea Agnelli, Pirlo was quick to dismiss any such notions by reiterating that he dedicated his win to all Italians. He went on to state that there was no need to
seek vengeance, as he was not that sort of person.
Andrea Pirlo had been pivotal in Juventus winning the Scudetto and the midfielder has been the driving force behind the Italians progressing this far into the competition. His displays and defiance of his age has led to many people
suggesting that Pirlo should be receiving the Ballon d’Or.
The regista diffused any such notions by suggesting that Cristiano Ronaldo and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lionel-Messi-c22296 were at another level altogether and to break their stranglehold is next to impossible. He remarked:
“As long as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristiano-Ronaldo-c9629 are around, it’s impossible to win it. They are a step above the rest and score 60 goals per season, so I won’t be upset to miss out.”
On the issue of tackling Germany, the midfielder sang praises of the Germans, stating that they are strong in each area, whether it is defence, attack or in the midfield. He went on to state that he is expecting a cracking match
of football when the two sides meet in the semi-final.
He singled out Mesut Ozil as the dynamic which runs Joachim Low’s outfit; however, the midfielder also suggested that the Germans were afraid of the Italians, and commented:
“We came here to win and Germany are afraid of us, as they know we can cause them problems. There is the same hunger as in 2006 and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011 in terms
of our midfield.”
The match between the two European giant’s would be played tomorrow.
