Asamoah Inspires Juventus To Win
Ghana midfielder Kwadwo Asamoah has played down
his man-of-the-match performance for Juventus in
their opening day 2-0 win over Parma at home.

Asamoah, playing on the left side of midfield,
delivered a great ball for Lichtsteiner to open
the scoring.

He put up a gutsy presence in midfield and
exhibited occasional flashes of flair.

The new signing was playing his first match at the
Juventus Stadium after missing out of Udinese's
visit to Turin last season.

Asamoah is already an idol for the Bianconeri
faithful after scoring a superb goal for the side
in the Super Cup win over Napoli.

The Ghana international is refusing to take all
the credit for his eye-catching display.

“I'm not the only one out there, we play as a
team,” Asamoah said in a post-match interview.

”We all help each other on the field and that
makes everything so much easier. I'm pleased with
this win.

”The first match is always important and we've
got off to a good start with these three points.

”Our passing wasn't so slick in the first half
but we played really well after the interval.

”Conte has spent a lot of time explaining things
to me since I arrived. He's encouraged me to try
and go past my man more in training and he wants
me to do the same in matches.”
