Ambro fights Del Piero corner
Thursday 10 April, 2008

Milan midfielder Massimo Ambrosini has backed Alessandro Del Piero for a place in Roberto Donadoni’s Euro 2008 squad.

Donadoni will be asked to submit his final squad for the trip to Austria and Switzerland in a month’s time and Del Piero could miss out.

Having been left out for recent friendlies against Spain and Portugal, the Juventus captain may be denied a glorious international swansong, but Ambrosini believes he should be chosen.

“He is a great man and a great player,” he told Tuttosport. “He has the strength, the humility and the demonstration to show his value when he has been criticised.

“He has shown ferocious willpower to confirm that he is still a true champion and I really hope to see him run out for Italy.


“Besides, he is my favourite table-tennis opponent because I always beat him!”

Del Piero also received a vote of confidence from Panini, who included Pinturricchio in their Euro 2008 sticker album.
