Easy win for Juve. 3 goals difference.

xD not a boring game as i predicted :facepalm:

by MaestroFavre Wed Sep 19, 2012 8:41 pm

Interesting game but awfully sloppy! Way too many misplaced passes by the 2 teams. I'd say the game is actually quite even .

I can see Juve getting back in this game though .

Gio's touch needs to improve also it hasn't been that great . But you'd expect him to have a difficult game in such a case like this .

Can't wait till the second half!

I am actually happy that Juve are back to the CL, I want to see how others will feel about Juves' antics, that was a pure penalty for Hazard, instead Terry gets a yellow.

Mikel

John Terry Laughing

Pirlo

All that space that was given to Mata and Oscar tonight... Pirlo should have defended alot better.

poor tactics by Di Matteo

To Arq:

I think we were both right.

The first 30 minutes, your analysis was spot on. Juventus couldn't create much, and they looked very nervous.

However, the rest of the game showed Conte's spirit even without him on the touchline. The substitutions were great, and the game opened up. Great spirit from Juventus :bow:

Great game

Chelsea should of parked the bus second half. hmm

Asamoah is an absolute monster.

Great game by Juve! Atleast it shuts up all the haters and doubters! Apart from the 2 goals, I didn't really see much from Chelsea. Chelsea got Lucky with the first goal...second was amazing! Juve could have won the game but still a good result! Can't wait for Juve to play them in Turin cheers

That 2nd goal by Oscar. #Respect

Chelsea could have won the game as well. Didn't see much from Chelsea? Did you watch the first half? I don't think you did.

1st half - Chelsea
2nd half - Juve

Fair result in the end. Could have gone either way. Could have even ended 3-3 if Vucinic and Mata didn't waste one on one chances.

by TrezeGent Wed Sep 19, 2012 10:05 pm

Marchisio with 2 assists :bow:

fair enough... We looked very intimidated in the 1st half, but when we conceded the 2 goals, we started to play... 2-2 it's a good result for juve, especially after the 1st half

I watched every second! A lot of empty possession from Chelsea in the first half...Marchisio fluffed his one on one very early and Juve looked nervous for the first 20 mins but anyway...good game...see ya in Turin!

by lszanto Wed Sep 19, 2012 10:08 pm

I think we were lucky to go 2-0 up so quickly but we didn't make the most of it. We really lacked urgency all over the place, good game though and Oscar :bow:

I believe u meant Marchisio

great game anyway, we've proven to all our doubters here who said we would struggle and disagree that we have a world class team that we are up there with the very best, we played the CL holders and we outplayed them,

still unbeaten so far in all competitions,

Oscar's goal, OMFG!! nearly gave me a heart attack at 2-0...

Nah Vucinic had a great 1v1 chance and hit the side netting. Thought it was a better chance than Marchisio.

Good game, entertaining... respect to Juve and welcome back to CL, in style.

by Lord Hades Wed Sep 19, 2012 10:31 pm
