The Azzurri kick off their campaign on Monday evening in a game which the Juventus icon has labelled as vital. “We are not going out there to entertain or leave a good impression, but to win the match,” he said on Saturday. Del Piero說：「我們來這邊比賽可不是為了娛樂或是讓他們留下好印象的， 我們是為了贏得這場比賽的勝利。」 “We are two days away from our first encounter and we need to focus on the Africans because that is our most difficult game.” 「距離我們的首戰還有兩天，我們必須專注在非洲人身上， 因為這會是我們最難打的一場比賽。」 The Azzurri will start the tie as favourites against the World Cup debutants, but Del Piero is showing them great respect. “We've studied them and we will continue to study them. I know Appiah well, but they also have Essien, Muntari and Kuffour,” he noted. 「我們對迦納做過功課，而且會繼續研究下去， 我蠻瞭解 Appiah的，不過他們隊上還有 Essien、Muntari、Kuffour。」 “They are an expert side with international experience. 「他們是隻很專業的球隊，也不乏國際經驗。」 “We hope to be more German like rather than Costa Rican like, but it isn't important to score loads of goals. We just need to get more than our opponents.” 「我們希望能打得更像德國而非哥斯大黎加， 不過重要的並不是進很多個球，我們只要比對手進更多球就夠了。」 Whispers around the Italy camp insist that Del Piero is likely to start on the bench at the expense of Francesco Totti who is making his comeback after injury. “Totti is at 70 per cent? I'm at 100 per cent, but there is no duel,” underlined the Bianconeri captain. 談到自己可能因 Totti傷癒而回到替補席，Del Piero說： 「Totti回復了七成功力？我十成滿檔！不過又不是我們兩個要決鬥～」 “There is no dispute with Francesco, we are both at the disposal of Lippi and the Coach will do what he feels is right for the team.” 「我跟 Totti沒有爭執，我們都聽從 Lippi的調派， 主教練會做出他認為對球隊最正確的決定。」 Del Piero was also inevitably asked to comment on the Calciopoli scandal which has hit his club after his month of silence. “I haven't spoken because I like to go into the hills in order to evaluate the situation and to find some focus,” he explained. 自醜聞爆發以來，Del Piero一直都保持沉默，為此他解釋說： 「我沒有發言是因為想到山林間評估狀況，好找到一些重點。」 “A bit like what Achilles used to do when he isolated himself to study his strategies. 「有點像是阿基里斯習慣把自己隔離起來好研究戰略那樣。」 “From the mountains my evaluations were different, but my idea of attack can't be revealed. 「在山上我的評估就會不一樣，不過我的理想進攻模式不能透露。」 “A lot of things have happened since then and I await news. Everyone at Juventus is patiently waiting with hope. However, there is still need for clarity as the situation is complex. 「許多事情從那時候開始發生，然後我等待新聞， 每個在 JUVE的人都帶著希望耐心等候， 不過在這複雜的情況下還有許多事情必須要釐清。」 “Luciano Moggi? There is no need to be surprised if myself and my teammates have offered support and affection to Moggi. 「Moggi？如果我或是隊友對 Moggi給予支持或是安慰，也不需要驚訝。」 “However, this is separated from the facts. We want to know how things are going to turn out.” 「畢竟這跟事實如何是兩回事，我們還是想知道事情到底會變成怎樣。」 Juventus, due to a number of intercepted phone calls made by their former director Moggi, are facing the threat of relegation for sporting fraud. -- 脾氣大的女人，皮膚敏感， 每回以手指碰到，就變得像戰場一樣。 --
