Totally agree......Shaktar looked more fit. Juve are not used to not dominating possession - when you don't you need to chase the ball constantly.

Poor result, poor performance. Extremely disappointing crowd. Just a really average night of CL for us.
Shakhtar are a good team, yes, but I still feel we give these teams way too much respect. We needed A LOT more intensity and urgency from the lads. It's gonna be an uphill battle to get out of this group now, and if you ask me now, we will be playing EL football in February.

We were pathetic for the first 20 minutes,then we picked it up,luckily we reacted fast and scored.around the 70th minute you could how tired we were...Marchisio,Chiellini,Pirlo,Vidal...
Add to that that we faced a VERY good team,who deserved AT LEAST the draw today,if not the win.
And yes we still miss upfront power.
still,it's too early,i know it was a must win,but all we can do now is go and beat the Danes twice,and not lose in Ukraine will be the mission.
Forza Juve!

good to see that the referee fell for their time-wasting game.
quagliarella did exactly nothing. i hope conte ripps him a new hole in training. i can NOT understand how players that get introduced after the 60 minute mark still don't stay in movement the whole time but act as if they had to preserve their stamina. as professional football player you should really be able stay jogging for 30 minutes. well done, he rested himself for one situation where he shot a defender... great work. the problem was, that our defenders were to eager today... when there was a fifty-fifty ball in the opponents half barzagli, chiellini and bonucci chose to go for the ball (eventually losing to the opposition) rather than backup off to keep the back safe. it's not totally their fault, because the defender should not be in that position in the first place. our midfield did not fight enough for those fifty-fifty balls and so someone had to go their to have the slightest chance of winning the ball there.
rest fricking pirlo in serie a next time and please do try to shoot on goal if you are 20 metres away from it.
