Amauri: Juventus Are Stronger Than Last Season, Despite Defeat To Milan
The Bianconeri hitman doesn’t feel that last night’s defeat is a true reflection of what’s to come for his club.
Milan defeated Juventus in the Trofeo Berlusconi on penalties last night after a hard-fought 1-1 draw. Diego and Alexandre Pato grabbed the goals for their respective sides, with Yago Falque missing the only spot kick in the shoot-out for the Bianconeri.
The victory was the Rossoneri’s first of the pre-season; however, despite the somewhat unexpected outcome, Amauri is still extremely positive about Juve's upcoming campaign.
“It was a beautiful match, but we must remember that it was only decided on penalties,” the striker stated to Sky Sports at the completion of the contest.
“We lost this game, but our overall impression of ourselves is that we are much stronger than last season.
“[Felipe] Melo provides us with more quality and creativity to our game, and along with [Mohamed] Sissoko, he will provide us with strength.
“We hope that this season is even more beautiful than the last one was, and we are very confident that this will be the case.”
The Brazilian-born striker went on to make one final comment regarding his international future, which is expected to be decided in the coming months:
“If all goes well, I will become an Italian citizen in September, which will finally bring this soap opera to an end.”
