Former Juventus director Luciano Moggi believes that Italian football a level below other leagues in Europe.
The 77 year old was spoke to Tuttomercatoweb after Juventus’ shock 1-0 loss to Olympiakos in the Champions League and stated that the football being played outside of Italy is at a higher level.
“Juventus played very poorly in the first half, they were virtually not even on the field,” Moggi said.
“In the second half they deserved to equalise, but [Olympiakos goalkeeper] Roberto performed miracles.
“The Bianconeri gave the first 45 minutes to their opponents, and some players contributed less than usual, such as [Andrea] Pirlo.
“This is evidence that abroad the football is more aggressive, and in some cases is on a higher level.”
