tribalfooball.com - September 26, 2006

Juventus captain Alessandro del Piero insists Serie B will be no cakewalk, despite seven goals in the last two games.
Del Piero was on the scoresheet in Saturday's 4-0 defeat of Modena, netting his 199th goal for the Bianconeri.


"I am very glad I scored, but the most important thing is that the team played well and proved that we are determined to do well," he said on his personal website.

"There are only positive notes coming from the match, we just have to continue this way on Saturday against Piacenza."

Del Piero was close to completing a double century of Juve goals, but was denied by a last minute goal line clearance.

"Am I disappointed? Not at all, it was a great match, and I was really pleased with the spirit we all showed out there on the pitch," explained the skipper.

"By now we have come to terms with this emotional adventure and we all want to get back to the top as soon as possible.

"Let's just say I don't look at the bottom of the table, while we await for the outcome of the CONI Arbitration [on October 11].

"We're just looking forward to each game as it comes. Today's Juventus can go very far," concluded Del Piero.
