Pirlo tweeted picture of himself in underwear and the internet loved it
Substitute Alessandro Matri was the unlikely hero when he scored an extra-time winner to give Juventus a 2-1 win over Lazio in the Coppa Italia final, keeping them on course for the treble.
However, as is often the way, Andrea Pirlo was the star of the show.
While he did set up Juve’s equaliser in the game, it was his post-match performance that garnered most attention on social media.
Basically, the 36-year-old posted a celebratory picture on Twitter atfer the win:
Stiamo bene insieme vero?! 😃🏆Abbiamo vinto ancora una volta!! Adesso concentrati per dare nuovamente il massimo! pic.twitter.com/XC9N305Ney
