Juventus Star Diego Heaps Praise On Alessandro Del Piero
23 November 2009
Juventus captain Alessandro Del Piero made his long-awaited comeback from injury last night when he replaced Sebastian Giovinco during the Bianconeri’s 1-0 win over Udinese in Serie A.
The 35-year-old had only mustered a single appearance in the league so far and summer signing Diego partnered him for the first time in an official game.
“It went beautifully,” the Brazilian trequartista said to Sky Sport Italia of the fledgling partnership.
“Del Piero is impressive and it’s not hard to play alongside him. It’s always a pleasure.”
Juve were made to work hard to defeat Udinese at the Olimpico and it took an effort from left-back Fabio Grosso to break the deadlock.
“It’s true, it was a difficult clash,” admitted the ex-Werder Bremen man.
“Udinese are a great team, but I reckon that we were not moving enough during the first half and that’s why we struggled.
“But we did better in the second period and what’s important is that we picked up the three points.”
Juve are now five points behind leaders Inter and will travel to Cagliari next Sunday before hosting the Nerazzurri the following weekend.
