Category: <b>Match Reports</b><br><br>Only three days after the match played against Udinese, Parma come to the Delle Alpi stadium to meet Juventus who have recovered Vieira in the midfield and choose the Del Piero-Ibrahimovic partnership in attack.
The tempo on both sides is quite slow and nothing worth mentioning happens in the first ten minutes. After 13 minutes Ibrahimovic lights up the stands with a blaze: the Swede’s great pass to Del Piero, the Captain dribbles and passes to Mutu who, in the background, tries to put the ball back in but his cross kick is deflected for a corner. On 20’ minutes, Corradi shoots a right-footed kick from a thirty-metre range but he completely misses the target, while seven minutes later Vieira tries to feed Ibrahimovic with a long shot but the Swede, anticipated by Guardalben, is offside. Parma get dangerous on 33’ minutes when Marchionni sets Corradi on the go, who sprints in a regular position and anticipates Buffon with a volley but the ball ends out. Juventus reply on 35’ minutes with Balzaretti’s right-footed kick from the edge of the box, saved by Guardalben. The Bianconeri do not attack forcefully and Parma grab the chance: on 39’ minutes, Bresciano puts a low cross in from the left which gets to Dessena, free in the midfield, who plays an angled shot and puts the ball in (0-1). Juventus react and at the end of the first half earn the draw: a long shot from Mutu to Ibrahimovic who gets past Couto and beats Guardalben with a right-footed drive (1-1).
Capello starts the second half replacing Ibrahimovic with Trezeguet and after five minutes he substitutes Zambrotta with Blasi. On 7’ minutes, Emerson shoots a left-footed kick from outside the area but Guardalben clears. The goalkeeper is protagonist again on 12’ minutes when he saves a wonderful volley shot by Mutu, following Nedved’s cross pass. On 14’ minutes it’s Emerson and Del Piero aiming at goal from the edge of the box but both shots ends too high over the bar. Four minutes later, Blasi’s uncertainty frees Corradi in the penalty area but the forward, face to face with Buffon, incredibly shoots the ball out. On 20’ Nedved serves for Trezeguet in the box but the Frenchman is anticipated by Guardalben. On 23’ minutes, Juventus get very close to scoring with Del Piero who plays a beautiful free kick which unfortunately hits the post. The Bianconeri forcefully look for the winning goal: on 26’ minutes, Mutu and Del Piero look for it with two shots from the edge of the penalty area but they get both countered by the visitors’ defence. Five minutes later, Trezeguer’s header, after Nedved’s cross shot, gets too high.
The Frenchman aims at goal on 41’ minutes but his shot from the edge of the penalty area is deflected for a corner. Two minutes later, Camoranesi puts the ball in from the right flank, Vieira grabs the ball but he’s brought down: it’s penalty. Del Piero is in charge of converting the penalty but his powerful shot hits the crossbar once again. Juventus press in the final minutes but they cannot break the tie. It ends 1-1.
