[Champions League] JUVENTUS 2-0 Celtic (March 6, 2013) (12 Viewers)

[B3N]

Wouldn't expect Celtic to press as much or Juve to allow them as much territory or possession.

I'd expect more of a counter-attacking plan from Celtic, with them trying to get Samaras into the space Lichtsteiner leaves when he moves forward.

Can't imagine that will trouble Barzagli too much.

Yeah, I don't think they will get to have as much possession either eventhough they're clueless with it anyway. in the quotes the guy says napoli game was the same where infact I don't really see the similarities other than the time napoli was looking for the equalizer and the last 15 mins or so which was their last resort and out of desperation for running out of time. They actually sat back and prefered to counter us and waited for a fck up.

“No one minds physical contact,” said Lennon in today’s Press conference ahead of the second leg tomorrow night.
“I don't want to make a big issue of it, but the players will make the referee aware if it goes on again.
“I'm not taking anything away from Juventus, they deserved to win the game. But I did feel there were parts of the game that Juve should have been punished for, particularly at the corners.
“I watched the Napoli v Juve game the other night and Edinson Cavani was being pulled around quite a bit. We're just looking for the referee to do his job properly, that is all.”
Juventus Coach Antonio Conte joked about Lennon’s protests in his own Press conference today.
“At every corner, there is a Celtic player blocking the goalkeeper. That is systematically a foul as the rulebook says so.
“If Lennon is moaning about referees then he’s ready to work in Italy as everyone moans here. Joking aside, Celtic are doing really well and he is a prepared tactician.”

Red, your prediction?

A complete non-event of a game in which Juve's progression is never in doubt.

Nothing between a four-goal win for Juve and a one-goal win for Celtic would surprise me, because it's hard to gauge exactly what the mentality of the teams will be going into a game like this.

Exactly why Juve were within their rights to do what they did.

Basically, celtic is the ginger version of barcelona. Dominating their own league because of biased ref protection from their own football association. And then when they come to europe and see the real foorballing and ref standards, they start saying things aint fair.

Imagine a little girl being pampered like a princess at home and then one day grows up and go to school only to realisre that she isnt treated the same way.

What makes me laugh is that all of a sudden these scots are sounding a bit soft since after the first leg. Did they expect us to turn up and be bullied. Things they're probably used to or that's how they beat Barca. Here's a reality check for you. We ain't Barca!!!

Seen a few Celtic fans get excited over Anelka playing but not being registered. How cute.

Not playing Sion anymore.

what is wrong with Anelka? Or it was something wrong with us who has chosen, in panic, to sign a useless striker like him?

I thought only cheating Itys complained to the referees? It's hilarious how Celtic have done every little underhanded pathetic move that the british biased media would have you believe Juventus were going to pull before the tie.

Ahh the big, tough, strong and brave British/Irish complaining and moaning like little girls to the ref. How cute.

They thought he was inelegible to participate in the Champions League, when he clearly wasn't.

Why isn't Anelka in called up list?
