Pirlo: ‘Why Juve can beat Real Madrid in the Champions League final’
“I think Juventus can win and Buffon can win the Ballon d’Or”; Pirlo said.
“It’s never easy to qualify for a Champions League final but the club have done some amazing efforts to reach this target. I regret we lost the final against Barcelona after four incredible seasons in Turin. I hope my former club and my former teammates will win this team, they’d deserve it.”
“This Juventus side are stronger than mine. They know they can win the Champions League. When we reached the final two years ago nobody believed we could have played the final at the beginning of the season. Juventus must win now.”
As for Allegri: “It was not easy to succeed Conte but he has done a great job because he has slowly imposed his mentality with the player and the club. I am happy Buffon will have another chance to win the trophy he’s been chasing for his entire career.”
