[Champions League] JUVENTUS vs Real Madrid (10/21/08) (18 Viewers)

[Alen]

Why do most forwards like to run at the keeper instead of just shooting?

They are football players afterall. Many of them didn't finish high school.

i think Ale knew the best chance was to shoot because Pepe would have closed him down otherwise... and poor Casillas was expecting something else and could only watch the ball hit the back of the net...

Would you extend your No Smoking period if we win againts Toro this weekend ?

 

[Martin]

It's easier If you sprint and find yourself 1 on 1 with the keeper. It takes top players to score what Ale has scored. It's not easy to score the goal Del Piero has scored last night.

But in many cases the player is closer to the goal (and the keeper) than DP. So why wouldn't you shoot right away, before the keeper comes closer and spreads himself out in front of the goal and makes it harder?

And taking it round the keeper I don't get at all. If you think the keeper has good reflexes to save your shot, it's much easier for him to stop you running than a ball at full speed.

30 days is hard enough...
for me the match against Real was the most important of this season... we could either make or break it... n i thought if the team wins for us, it'd feel good to sacrifice something in return for them... from here on i believe it'll be an upward run, it has done a lot of good to the confidence of our team... the next most important match will be the semi's of the CL... maybe i'll bring back the "you win, i quit" campaign during that time
i believe our Scudetto chances are really slim, because you need to be consistent to win the league, but CL chances are considerably higher because with a bit of luck and the extra motivation our old guard has, we can go all the way...

For any player 1 vs 1 with the keeper isn't as hard as it seems unless you're facing Buffon each time. But even with worlds best keeper, he can easily get beaten with the 1 vs 1. Why?

-It's easy to dribble past him
-The keepers reflex isn't as good as it is when someone is taking a shot from the outside.
-Sometimes it just needs a touch to score considering how big the goal is.


Shooting from outside the range..

-Not any player is capable of doing that, you need a good vision and stable feet
-For the keeper he's got like 0.5 to 1sec to save the shot unlike when it's 1vs1 you don't have 0.1 sec to move.
-Goalkeepers prefer to jump then to stay on the ground. They can save better on air.

Cannavaro: "I didn't hear the whistles, I was focusing on the game"

Yea right!!!

Man, I can't wait for the game against Milan, I will be there and I will whistle my voice out booing the ultimate maggot Zambrotta. He will also come out and say that he was focusing on the game.

 

[Azzurri7]

When are we playing Inter home?

 

[Martin]

Do you take it around the keeper?

 

[Azzurri7]

Do you take it around the keeper?

Depends. I know that If I was in Alex place last night, I would have done the same shooting the ball outside the range, but of course it wouldn't come out the way it comes/came out with him...not even 1%.

 

[JCK]

When are we playing Inter home?

That will be on the 19th of April, we play them away in the first half of the season.

I might as-well be booing Zlatan and Vieira.

They got their share of booing last season, Cannavaro got it yesterday and Zambrotta is the only maggot left.

Yeah. I also hope Emerson takes part of the booing too. Too bad Thuram ran away with it.

After yesterday's game I have to say that I still love Juuuuuuuuuuuuuuve!!!!!

70% of the time I've spent on the pitch in my life was practicing shooting, so that's the one thing I feel is "safe". That's why I don't get it when a player has the chance to take a shot and doesn't do it.

so what, you were starting to not love them due to the current form?

 

[Osman]

once ...in some thread there was a talk about a juve victory....if its the same thing if the winning goal is scored by del piero..or other player (a sali, camo goal)....it ain't the same for me.....fuck you if u judge me wrong...last night it was x2 special because alex scored a beauty of a goal ..and that's what i feel in every match in which he scores and we win ...2 times the joy.

Why would anyone judge you?

Its the same for me (only fucker that makes me teary), everything is more special for me if its by Il Capitano Its not like we hold him above Juve like player fans only do, but on the contrary he just represents whats most beautiful of Juve the best in every way

I last played on a team when I was 10. Since then I've just been playing recreationally. Mostly midfield cause my reflexes and finishing aren't good enough for striker and you get to see the ball more often.
