[Serie A] Juventus - Udinese (8 Viewers)

[Dominic]

Lucky Juve, once again.

Some very sloppy play, players in each others way, players stumbling over the incredibly bad pitch, players misspassing, no system in our play whatsoever and no dominance, despite have a numerical advantage. With 12 players (yes I mean 12) players against 10 players it took us 70 minutes to score against udinese and we needed an offside goal to grant us that goal.
We needed to create some midfield dominance and to get a system and some rythme into our play, what does Capello do? Take of another one of our midfielders... Our fullbacks were our most threatening players today, which in itselfs says enough. One of those days, where the team couldn't find any form. Luckily we still managed to win..

I don't want to waste an more breath an such shamefull perfomance.

One of the ugliest ever matches I have seen,not just we played very bad,and we didn't deserve any point,but the refreeing was all bullshit.

I hope that Idiot refree never do this job again,this guy is a shame for serie A,He killed the Udinese team by dissalowing 100% fair goal for Udinese,then sending off the udinese player unfairly (Muntari I guess),and at last DP goal was 100% offside. I wish I never saw this tragedy..

Edit: and also the incident when Cannavaro pushed Vidigal in the penalty box,that one is also arguable..

This is because Zlatan is a great player with an extordinary potential and people tend to expect great things from him! Don`t forget he sould be our main man for the future and up untill Del Piero`s explosion a lot of our game was based on him!

You are probably right... Im glad there are some out there that can give a good post when needed...!

 

[Juve_Kosova]

thats what happened to DP last year and the years before

not the same way that its happeing to Zlatan!

A juventus fan, lives and dies with his team.
He is happy when the team does well and sad when they perform badly.
A Juve Fan is allowed to Critisize all aspects of his team, from the directors to the primavera players, all of them we support.
When they play well we praise them.
When they play bad we let them know.

So, on any given day, a fan might think that the coach made a mistake, or he might say that Ibra should be subbed, etc etc... This doesnt mean that he is disrespecting hi team.

Ibrahimovic' nonsensical play doesn't fit into juve's no nonsense play, whatsoever.

 

[mnementh]

Canna didn't commit a penalty. It was a bit physical but legit.
Juve's goal was indeed in offside, but those mistakes happen. The linesman disallowed many offsides for juve throughout the match wrongly.
Udinese goal was in offside, it wasn't a legit goal at all.

Players who performed well today :
Zambrotta
Mutu
Del Piero
Nedved
Cannavaro

 

[AzherIqbal]

I'm I the only one to agree with the refs decisin to send Muntari off.

Both tackles were bookable and the worst thing was they were literally two mins apart!

 

[Lawnchair Bes]

worse. much worse

15 overall and 8 in serie a

and how many goals for juve total?

 

[loyada]

we play with an offensive team (unusual from capello) and against 10 men we had problem to score.
maybe better to play the boring/efficient (some says even predictible) way that juve know best.

 

[Cronios]

AS i also said, its TRUE that ibra aint playing well.. BUT, if someone els playd bad then i would been a big DEAL! but just because its zlatan, then everone starts attacking him and talking about how SHITTY he is...!!! thats what makes me mad/sad..!!!

its like this, IF juventus score a goal and its offside, next day EVERY newspapper talks about its!!!

if its inter/milan/roma its NOTHING!! no one talks about is!!

the same is with Zlatan in this foruM! and thats not FAIR!!!

IMO !!!

anyway, just forget this.. it will never work out..

I agree, i m not a Zlatan hater ( i like him and i consider him to our future,he is just currently out of form)
but what sould i do?
i didnt bashed him at all or commented anything negative,
i ve just posted the facts, is this a crime?
we do u have to take personal any post on Zlatan?
sould i hide the last opportunities?
ppl who wonna bash him will do it anyway,
i never took part to it, peace!

189 me thinks

 

[tassard]

I think Ibra has a morale problem cause he is not so confident.When he is confident he plays very well but maybe he can not stand the weight of the things we hears(New Van Basten e.t.c).
I don't think we should sell him, surely not before we see his performances in the World Cup

hmm lets see wht channel 4 abouts the game

Controversial Juve carry on

Alessandro Del Piero scored the winner in an extremely controversial match that will dominate headlines for the next few days.

Serse Cosmi's men have shown improvement of late, and reached the Coppa Italia semi-finals midweek, but faced a daunting task against the runaway Serie A leaders. Vincenzo Iaquinta and Sulley Ali Muntari were again available for selection, though four stars were suspended: Roberto Baronio, Cesare Natali, Giampaolo Pinzi and Fernando Tissone. Juve had to do without Patrick Vieira, also due to a ban, and Jonathan Zebina.

Juventus took their time to get into the game and a David Trezeguet header on Federico Balzaretti's cross was too weak to trouble Morgan De Sanctis.

There was controversy after 21 minutes when Antonio Di Natale hit the back of the net for Udinese, but it was correctly disallowed for offside when Vincent Candela's pass came in. The move had been sparked by a woeful - and very rare - error from Gianluca Zambrotta, who nodded the ball straight to Iaquinta.

Trezeguet sprung the offside trap just inside the area and De Sanctis showed great awareness to come tearing out and charge down the lob.

Udinese's disciplinary record this season has been appalling with eight red cards and, for the third week running, they had a man sent off before half-time.

Sulley Ali Muntari had been booked a minute earlier when he came flying in on Pavel Nedved, but replays suggest he got the ball in the second occasion, so the Friuli outfit can feel hard done by. Udinese were furious and Muntari protested by throwing his shirt at the referee.

On the resulting free kick, Ibrahimovic's header slammed the frame of the goal, then De Sanctis flew to push a Nedved snapshot out from under the bar.

Abel Aguilar replaced forward Di Natale for the second half, as the Colombian midfielder made his Serie A debut.

Juve went close to an opener when Mauro Camoranesi's effort on a Nedved cross took a decisive deflection off Felipe's outstretched foot that skimmed the upright by a matter of inches.

Alessandro Del Piero replaced Camoranesi for a trident attack against 10-man Udinese.

De Sanctis is one of the candidates for the World Cup squad and proved his worth with three stunning saves in quick succession. He batted away both Del Piero's free kick and the Ibrahimovic headed follow-up, then moments later palmed away an Adrian Mutu header.

Juventus eventually got past him with an extremely controversial goal, as Del Piero swept in a Zambrotta cross from the left from eight yards, but replays show he was in an offside position.

Ibrahimovic has scored only three goals this season and he couldn't turn in Zambrotta's cross with only the 'keeper to beat.

There was further controversy 10 minutes from time when Jose Luis Vidigal's chip left Buffon behind and, as he was about to nod into an empty net from six yards, Fabio Cannavaro nudged him in the back to get on top and clear. Udinese's appeals for a penalty and red card were ignored.

Ibrahimovic was again wasteful, firing on to the side-netting on the counter-attack.

and how many goals for juve total?

Well said

 

[Hydde]

well, the gme was poor and the ref was a shame....we didn deserved this win,,, but i ll not talk abut it.

Nedved and Del piero were the best on the field, together ith our fullbacks.
Zamb abd balza were not phenomenon but thei crosses were ok. Nedved was very lively and he didnt scred because desanstis was in superb form today.
Delpiero, even when his goal was in offide position, the guy contibuted a lot in the game, pssing, dribbling players and guiding the team. He just confirmed his great form.

Zlatan, he definitely is in a bad moment. Del Piero did what he could to assist zlatn but he isjust not playing wel. He is a great player with great potetial, and we will need him badly f th CL, so is time for him to start gaiing form and scoring.
Go Zlatn!!
