The Juventus squad was back in action, playing a pre-season friendly the following day, on a rainy Sunday evening. In the ANZ Stadium filled to the brim with passionate Australian fans, they faced off against the Australia & New Zealand A-League All-Stars select team captained by Juventus' former star and legend - Alessandro Del Piero.
Massimiliano Allegri, Juventus' head coach, chose to go with a midfield of Paul Pogba, Claudio Marchisio, and Andrea Pirlo that day. As for Zachary and Vidal, his other star midfielders, he left them on the bench due to their match fitness issues.
