Category: <b>General</b><br><br>Italy captain Fabio Cannavaro has kept to his promise by winning the World Cup for Juventus team manager Gianluca Pessotto.
The Azzurri have dedicated their Germany 2006 victory to the 35-year-old who is still in a serious condition in hospital after an apparent suicide attempt last month.
Italy returned to the peninsula last night and a number of the Giro Azzurro wasted little time in visiting Pessotto this afternoon.
Fabio Cannavaro, Gianluca Zambrotta, Ciro Ferrara and physical trainer Claudio Gaudino all made the trip to the Molinette hospital on Tuesday.
The quartet brought the World Cup trophy with them which they showed to the former Juventus stopper.
Cannavaro, Zambrotta and Ferrara all entered the facility via a side door to avoid the fans outside of the Molinette hospital who were expecting a visit today.
It proved to be an emotional moment for Pessotto when he saw his former teammates with the Cup.
“There was a big smile mixed with a few tears, it was certainly a moment of great joy,” said doctor Pierpaolo Donadio.
Pessotto was already visited during the tournament by Zambrotta, Ferrara and Alex Del Piero who flew in from Germany just hours after his fall from a window at Juve’s headquarters.<br><br>Source: Football Italia

Good to hear Pessottino feeling better.
