                               FC Juventus  1 - 1  Catania
                                               89' Alessandro Del Piero           47' J.A. B. Martinez


This is a beautiful day!!!

Although Milan disappointed me big time, Juventus, Cagliari, and Roma brought joy to my heart with their victories.

Juventus was losing to Catania and I was suffering during the entire match!

I knew that I could count on Alessandro Del Piero who has done more for Juventus than any other player. 

Last 5 minutes of the match were agonizing!!!

Del Piero, like a lion defending Juventus try many times to open the score but to no avail.
In the 85th minute, defender Chiellini provides him an assist but Del Piero header went wide!!!

It was four minutes later, just when almost everybody was giving up.  Our beloved Captain, DEL PIERO, gets motivation and inspiration from I don't know where!   Zebina sends the assist

Precisely, in the 89th minute, the great captain equalizes the score!!!!! Chiellini again provides the assist and Del Piero this time shoots from close range to the bottom right corner blasting Catania goalkeeper and sending in delirious Juve fans at the Olimpico!!!!!
         
                             
Guys... I have to go because it's Mother's Day and my daughter is taking me out for brunch.

Just wanted to leave quick here  the information.... I added the video highlights of the match. 

Will complete this note after...


Happy Mother's day and THANK YOU DEL PIERO for this great satisfaction!!!!
