Giorgio Chiellini had one of the best games of his career against Tottenham, and even if he was glad about reaching the UEFA Champions League Quarter final stage, he remembered one of his friends and couldn't hold his tears back.
Speaking in a post-match interview, Chiellini wqs answering a question about the game when the broadcaster asked him about Davide Astori, Fiorentina's captain who passed away last Sunday. Chiellini and Astori shared some games with the Italian National Team, and Juve's defender found it appropriate to dedicate today's performance to his late friend.

"He's always in our heart, tomorrow we go to give our last 'ciao' together with our teammates."
