WATCH: Girls give opinions on the wondrous Andrea Pirlo with and without his beard

There's not a more recognisable beard in world football than that which warms the cheeks of everyone's favourite Italian Andrea Pirlo. It's difficult to remember a time when the New York City FC midfielder was clean shaven but it did exist, and what a terrible time that was to be alive. The curious folk at talkSPORT took to the streets to compare the reactions of young women to the babyfaced days of the Italy legend versus the modern day, razorless Pirlo. No prizes for guessing which Andrea wins out. https://youtu.be/AbtHkog3EHA
