Category: <b>Match Reports</b><br><br>After an initial slip-up, that allowed Treviso to get the advantage on 25’ minutes, Capello’s side gets in control of the game and conquers a deserved win thanks to goals by Mutu, Trezeguet and Del Piero.
With Thuram and Vieira disqualified, Capello lines up Kovac and Blasi and, allowing Nedved a break, chooses Mutu. Juventus try to attack right away but the opponents’ defence keep good guard and Camoranesi’s attacks on the right flank are not followed by his teammates in the penalty area, who are well controlled by Treviso defenders. After 24’ minutes, Emerson beautifully crosses to Ibrahimovic, with the latter being anticipated by Zancopé. The guest side, who have already been dangerous on 16’ minutes with Cottafava’s header flying over Abbiati’s crossbar, take the lead on 25’ minutes with a ground shot by Parravicini from the edge of the box (0-1). One goal down, Capello’s side increases their pressure in attack an don 36’ minutes Chiellini gets dangerous but his shot from the short range is narrowly wide. They earn the draw one minute later: a fine pass between Camoranesi and Ibrahimovic, the Swede crosses for Mutu on the right and the latter grabs the ball and puts it in (1-1). Juventus build up minute after minute and they achieve the 2-1 goal just before the break (43’): following Chiellini’s drive, Trezeguet intercepts the ball, skips past Zancopé and scores.
The second half starts under the sign of the Bianconeri who dominate undisputedly and attack to increase the spoils. After 3 minutes, following Zambrotta’s cross shot, Ibrahimovic heels the ball to Emerson whose shot ends high over the bar. On 13’ minutes, Mutu lobs the ball in the penalty box to skip past an opponent but his finish misses the target. On 18’ minutes, Ibrahimovic clears to Mutu and the Romanian’s drive is deflected out for a corner. Treviso attack only after 24 minutes with Cottafava’s header being eventually saved by Abbiati. Cavasin makes three substitutions, Capello makes two, first choosing Del Piero to replace Trezeguet then Nedved for Mutu. On 33’ minutes, a fine action by Ibrahimovic who, countered by two opponents, passes to Nedved, the ball gets into the middle for Del Piero who can’t intercept it, then it gets to Blasi and the ball finally ends past the post. On 37’ minutes, it’s time for the third deserved goal: Ibrahimovic puts the ball in from the left and Del Piero, from a good position, scores (3-1). Meanwhile, Capello makes a final substitution: Zalayeta for Ibrahimovic. On 41’ minutes, a great scoring chance for Del Piero who, on a free kick, fully strikes the crossbar.
