Domenico Marocchino

[1] In the summer of 1979, he returned to Juventus, and remained at the club for four seasons, winning two consecutive Serie A titles in 1981 and 1982, and a Coppa Italia in 1983.

[1] Marocchino made his only international appearance for the Italy national football team on 5 December 1981, in a 1–0 home win over Luxembourg in a 1982 FIFA World Cup Qualifying match, held in Naples.

[1] Regarded as a talented prospect in his youth, Marocchino, however struggled to live up to his potential in his later career, due to his mentality and inconsistency at the top level.

He was capable of playing in several midfield positions, and was used as a winger, as an attacking midfielder, or even as a second striker; his Juventus manager Giovanni Trapattoni often struggled to find a suitable position for him, however, as he deemed him to be inconsistent, and felt his defensive work-rate was too low for him to be deployed as a wide midfielder, but that he was too unreliable in front of goal to be used in a more offensive role.

In spite of his tall, large build, Marocchino possessed excellent technique, control, and dribbling skills, which along with his physique, enabled him to defend the ball under pressure, and beat opponents, both in one on one situations or during individual runs.
