Zaccheroni’s Juve managed to exit the field with a clean sheet and the goalkeeper on the occasion was Alexander Manninger who replaced Buffon after a training injury: « I am sorry for Gigi. I got to know yesterday I would be playing and therefore it is important that I try to stay prepared. It is a good sign that we did not concede goals. Ajax is not an easy team we knew it would not be easy. We were clever to manage the game. It is clear that before something was wrong because Juve cannot go through such a series of negative results. We found our balance again and now we must go on like this».

Gigi will be out for about a month and therefore Manninger will be defending the Juve goal even in the next round of the Europa League, but what does the Austrian keeper think of this competition? : « I am looking forward very much to the rest of the Europa League because Juve deserves to do well and that is why I will be prepared to replace Gigi as best I can».
