Alessandro Del Piero and David Trezeguet, along with Giuseppe Sculli, were the strikers of the evening that saw Juventus win the last friendly match of Juventus Japan Tour. Here are their comments:
Del Piero: “F.C. Tokyo played better in the first half, deserving the lead, while it was the other way round in the second half when we deserved it. We wanted to win and we wanted to repeat it in Hong Kong too but we did not make it. When you get on the pitch you always aim at winning, even during these friendly matches at the end of the season. Our relationship with Japan is strong, with the media and the Japanese version of my web site, but I just did not expect so much anticipation and attention. I was pleasantly surprised.”
Trezeguet: “The first half was hard for us, we did better in the second half and deserved this win. I think that our opponents are a good team and they showed high level play. Plans for next year? We’ve won the Scudetto this year, next year we’ll be aiming at winning the Champions League, without certainly neglecting the national tournament.”
