180th win for Juve in european competitions!!!
The job is done! We are already in the 2nd stage, probably as group's winners :extatic: I must say that I didn't think that it'll be this easy, but then again Feyenoord's away record is not something to be proud of. Plus the absence of PVH was seen.
We played better than in the last 2 matches, but there were still some things that we should try to improve. We looked like a big mess at moments, passings were wrong, balls were lost, 100% opportunities missed (!!!!) and if we faced a more skillful team the erorrs would cost us!
The game itself was quite entertaining, with counter-attacks, many other good chances were created by both teams, although Juve was the superior team no doubt. But the game didn't
flow due to the quite rough game that the dutchies set against Juve. If you take a look at the statistic you'll see that Feyo made 31 (

) fouls and we
humble 13
First of all I have to congratulate Buffon!

His performance today was spotless! So glad he is out of his shaky period! The occasions worth mentioning are: the time when our defence overslept and Lurling's shot was blocked; then there was Feyo's free-kick, which made Gigi pretty busy, since the target was the upper right corner.
The defence: Thuram - Ciro - Tudor - Birindelli; well Tudor found the way home finally! He was not as good as last year or the year before, which is understandable, since he plays in different position every time he steps on the pitch which is kind of confusing, but definitely showed that he belongs in the back line

On a few occasions the defence was slow or not well organized - not a surprize since they are not used to play together, well at least Tudor and Biri. Biri had a good game, didn't do a huge mistake, even managed some good saves. The frenchman had, once again, a good game and was the starting part in the operation First goal, since he passed the ball to Camo who passed to Di Vaio :cheesy:
I still cannot believe how good Camoranesi is and that we actually have such a jewel. Not to mention how well he goes along with DP, Di Vaio and Nedved

He is, by now, an indispensable player in our team! Great two assists and many more passes that made football look sooo easy
The central midfield could work out some things, still not there yet where I want them to be, but with Tacchi in it I can only pray that it'll improve. Davids did OK, had a beautiful opportunity with his free-kick and made Feyo's keeper really busy, hardly saved it. This was also the incident were Zoetebier hurt his finger and was subed for the 2nd half :undecide:
Nedved was a worker again. Too bad his great shot was saved, but barely

Also a nice move from Lippi to move him more on the left, out of center in the 2nd half since Rzasa was visible slower and was outplayed by Camo and Nedved on numerous occasions
The forward couple formed by DP and Di Vaio was very eager to play and a delight to watch!

They allowed themselfs, especially DP, a few tricks were the possibility to score was much lower than if they chose an ordinary way, but at the end everything worked out

DP deserved a goal(s) ... especially with all those over head kicks he was so eager to perform
