Finally we have some words from Mirante who will be between posts for the Lecce game.
I posted it in this thread since we don´t have a Mirante Thread and I don´t wanna open a new thread.
Antonio Mirante had a baptism of fire when he came on against Albinoleffe on Saturday, facing a penalty straight away after the dramatic sending-off of Gianluigi Buffon. “I was sorry to come on in a moment like that, it wasn’t an ideal start. In the end I didn’t have much to do but it was a great experience none the less”. It was the young keeper’s first senior appearance for the Bianconeri. “It was a wonderful feeling but the emotions of the first few minutes soon gave way to concentration”. How does it feel to be the second goalkeeper of a team like Juventus? “It’s an honour to be twelfth man to Gigi, he’s the best keeper in the world. It really is a source of great pride and satisfaction for me”. And how long will it be before he’s making more regular appearances? “I’m young and I still have to improve in all areas. I work hard in training and luckily I pick up a lot from Gigi and Emanuele. I’m really grateful to them for lending me a hand and helping me to get better”. Antonio feels very much at home with the Bianconeri. “Even though I never got the chance to play, I was on the first team bench here three years ago before I left for Crotone. It has always been my dream to play for Juventus and now it’s come true. Coming back here having played in the Primavera is incredible”.
