That had to be the most f*ked up match I've watched in a long time. Frederico Balzaretti? More like Frederico Fellini was on the pitch directing things...
20 minutes into the match and both teams' subs are already half used up to replace injured players. You got a MOM performance from Marchisio. You've got Del Piero alternately making great goals and then being an Ibra-like ball hog at the wrong moments. Then Palladino gets replaced with some cancer-stricken circus midget with hydrocephalus and a jersey number that matches his height in cm, and it turns out this guy is good.
And as Juve keep pressing, the club breaks down in communication for scoring chances as if they've never played together before. And then, from out of nowhere, the Curse of Bologna comes to save Juve on a penalty called on a non-foul against Marchionni. And then the ghost of Gianluca Pagliuca appears, yelling at the ref, "They just have to win, that's it, right, ref?!!" And DP converts it twice after the ref red cards the rest of the Bologna defense.
And then while the team plays pass-the-ball to kill the clock, cocky in their lead and a 11-9-man advantage, Gigi has to make brilliant save after brilliant save to secure the victory. Only finished by Cancer Boy feeding Trez for an easy 3-1 tap-in to finish the match.
Can things get any more bizarre than that? :confused2
Andries, are you sure you want to support this club?!?
