Player Talk : Camo


Camo: We threw it away
Monday 3 March, 2008

Mauro Camoranesi was frustrated by Juventus’ defeat against Fiorentina and felt the Bianconeri deserved better.

The Old Lady were beaten 3-2 in Turin by their bitter rivals and are now just a single point ahead of the Viola in third place.

Having led 2-1, with Camoranesi on target for Juve’s second, the Cadetti champions let it slip and were stunned by a last-gasp goal from Pablo Daniel Osvaldo.

“It’s a shame because it was ours for the taking,” Camo lamented on Italia 1.

“We went ahead and we had to manage the game better, even if Fiorentina played very well in the first half especially.

“We grew in the second period and they didn’t have any big chances, but we threw it all away with two lapses.”

It had seemed that Juve’s dressing room was calling a Press silence when none of the players appeared for post-game interviews, but the Azzurri winger insisted the snub wasn’t a statement.

“We didn’t intend for there to be a Press silence after the game,” he maintained.

“It was a case of miscommunication as we all thought someone else had gone to be interviewed.”

With so much speculation relating to Roberto Donadoni’s Euro 2008 squad, Camoranesi couldn’t resist the chance to oppose calls for Sampdoria’s Antonio Cassano to be selected.

“Cassano has exceptional quality,” he admitted. “But I wouldn’t have wanted him in the World Cup squad in Germany – that’s all I’m going to say.”
