Juventus boss Ciro Ferrara wasn’t too disappointed with defeat to Milan. “We leave San Siro with our heads held high and Diego,” he noted.

The Bianconeri were edged out of the Trofeo Berlusconi tie on penalties, but only after their Brazilian fantasista lit up the Meazza.

Not only did the £21m summer signing return from injury to give Juventus the lead, but he was at the centre of everything good for the Old Lady.

“We leave San Siro with our heads held up high and having re-found an important player like Diego,” said Ferrara.

“He has great quality with and without the ball. He is good at finding space and is also very powerful.

“He’s not 100 per cent fit, but he did some classy things out there.”

Having beaten Milan 2-0 on Friday night, Ferrara’s troops failed to hang on for victory after Alexandre Pato headed in an equaliser.

“We came here to win, but we were not able to. It was a pretty balanced game and the result is correct,” added the tactician.

“We did get a bit stretched at times, perhaps because of the heat, but overall the side did well out there.”

Captain Alessandro Del Piero was expected to start the game, but he wasn’t even named on the bench.

“Del Piero had a problem with his back and we didn’t want to risk playing him. We hope to have him available for Sunday.”

Juve take on Chievo in their opening League game of the season at the weekend.

Del Piero wants great start | Thursday 20 August, 2009

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Alessandro Del Piero is incredibly excited ahead of the first game of the season and has revealed Juventus are ready to give their best.

The Bianconeri will face Chievo Verona at the Olimpico in Serie A’s Week 1. “We want to start the season at full speed,” claimed Del Piero.

“Chievo are a solid team and last year they caused us trouble. I hope we will be able to win and have a really good start. We are ready for it.”

Regarding the row between Marcello Lippi and Jose Mourinho, Pinturicchio gave his opinion.

“Lippi made his prediction and there is nothing wrong with that. I don’t know why Mourinho is so annoyed about it.

“After all last year Lippi said they were going to win it and we didn’t complain about it. I hope he is right with his prediction though.

"I respect Mourinho but at the same time I don't care about him and what he says.

“I am still hoping to get a call from him for La Nazionale and I continue to work like I have always done before.”
