Andrea Pirlo had a triumphant start to his coaching career,
as Juventus won 3-0 at home to Sampdoria in the Serie A,
on Sunday.
The defending champion advanced when Diane Kulusevski, in
his first appearance with Juventus scored from his sixth touch
in the 13th minute, before defender Leonardo Bonucci and
Cristiano Ronaldo added two goals in the last quarter of an hour.
Pirlo, the former Juventus, and AC Milan player had no training
experience before the surprise announcement that he would
take charge of the Italian league champions after Maurizio Sarri
was sacked in August, and he obtained his coaching license last week.
