Hello my friends. Here are the front pages from Italy main Sports newspapers La Gazzetta dello Sport, Corriere dello Sport, and Tutto Sport from Wednesday 15 April 2015.
Just love it! Awesome! It’s so nice to wake up with a happy smile grabbing my cup of coffee to check the newspapers. Yep, I was eager to see the headlines after Juventus defeated AS Monaco in the Champions League Quarterfinals First Leg. It is midfielder Arturo Vidal getting the praises after converting the penalty for the result 1-0. Surely, I agree with the headline that it was a shout of gold by Vidal to celebrate his goal. How are you?
