While Claudio Ranieri counts the injuries, Alex Del Piero insists Juventus did not deserve their 3-0 defeat at the hands of Hamburg.
“It’s a shame about Dario and Cristian,” said the Coach after both Knezevic and Molinaro were stretchered off in the Emirates Cup.
“I hope I don’t have to lose them for too long. I completely changed the squad today and at the end they were tired. It shows our fitness training is on schedule.”
Knezevic has been diagnosed with a sprained left knee, while Molinaro – who was taken out by a sliding Giorgio Chiellini challenge on Zidan – has bruised his hip.
Hamburg were leading with Paulo Guerrero’s early strike before two stoppage-time goals from Ivica Olic rounded out the scoreline.
“Considering the second half performance, we deserved a draw, especially as Mauro Camoranesi’s goal was not offside,” noted Del Piero.
“It’s a shame about the result and it was far too harsh considering what we saw on the field. This was the first time I played a full 90 minutes this season.”

I hate how Ranieri probably made Ale do the interview instead of himself.
