Per example'
Manchester- Juventus
Juventus came to mighty Old Trafford thinking they were in for a tough night, being 2-0 down thanks to a Van Nistrooy brace. However, it did not take more then 4 minutes on the clock till Pavel Nedved fired home a blistering 30 yard strike which was much to the embarressment of Roy Carrol, as the ball rolled between his legs. Nedved once again had a decent chance on the 13th minute, but his header flashed the bar from an Alesandro Del Piero cross from the right side.
Manchester started to get in the game when Wayne Rooney's curling header just got a hand to it by the World No.1, Gianlugi Buffon. Buffon then gave Capello a scare when he went down holding his testicles from a Van Nistrooy shot from a yard. To the delight of the travelling fans, Buffon was able to continue but wore a codpiece for the rest of the match.
After a small session of Manchester's Midfield dominace, they were caught out by a slick counter after Emerson intercepted a mispass in the midfield. His pass found Camoranesi, who found Zalayeta with his low drive into the box, who found the back of the net with his piledriver shot that gave Carrol no chance.
After half time, Juventus dominated the game and almost scored immediately after the break. Nedved's clever pass from the deep midfield found Camorenesi, but Carrol managed to beat the ball unto the Argentine and force a goal kick. Juventus went close again after Del Piero hit the side netting from 20 yards with his angled drive, but soon after the contraversy came as Ferdinand was shown a straight red for a debateable foul inside the box against Alessendro Del Piero. Del Piero made no mistake, and fired in the bottom left.
Juventus took the gas off the pedal, and defended stubbornly with Cannavaro making a vital goaline clearance in the dying minutes, but held on for a convincing 3-0 win.
