The way Del Piero was controlling the ball, bringing it down, was amazing tonight. Class of the highest order.

Did you see the way he brought the ball down from Zanetti's lofted pass on the backheel and then sprinted towards goal? Sheesh! What class.
yes that was absolute quality..and he made it look so easy and effortless..

Juve legend Alex Del Piero talked about his performance against Lazio, against whom he scored two goals tonight.

We Suffered Tonight - Del Piero

Juventus captain Alessandro Del Piero, who was the hero tonight in the Old Lady's win over Lazio with two great goals, gave an interview to SKY right after the match.

Asked how he felt about having played the full 90 minutes after coming on several times as a substitute this season, he said: "It means a lot to have played the full match, because when you have 90 minutes available you have more opportunities to show what you can do.

"Tonight I'm happy for two reasons, because I scored and we hadn't won away from home in a long time.

"[Coach Claudio] Ranieri was unsatisfied? Well, we did suffer during parts of the game, but we still defended quite well. There's always things you can improve."

On whether the team are more interested in the results of teams in front of them or behind them, he said: "We have to look at the teams in front of us as well as those who are behind."

Del Piero was pathetic tonight.


He should have scored 3 more goals, and he was at fault for both Lazio's goals, and he missed to mark Rocchi and made Buffon save his ass. Pathetic!!!

Tell me about It Andrew. The man has the best ball control I've ever seen since I started following football. You don't see ball controls like "Ale's one".... he's pure magic, the way he controls the ball the way he holds it is out of this world.


And still people wondering why the man gets soo much support and love.

Long live Capitano

this guy a left footer or what loves the lefty's. Loved the backheel control quality. loved how when keeper come out he went for height and when keeper stayed on his line he kept it low thats the difference in a smart striker and a dumb one.
