Ibra facing trial by TV Monday 28 November, 2005
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Zlatan Ibrahimovic could find himself facing another trial by television after pictures showed him throwing a ball at a Treviso player on Sunday.
Ibrahimovic put on a superb display for Juventus, setting up two goals and pulling the strings in the 3-1 win at the Stadio Delle Alpi, but the temperamental striker has a short fuse and another act of indiscipline may have landed him in hot water again.
Although referee Salvatore Racalbuto appeared to miss the incident, pictures clearly showed Ibra hurling the ball at Marcello Cottafava, striking him on the back of the head, after the defender had attempted to prevent the Swede from taking a quick throw-in.
This is not the first time Sweden’s Player of the Year has found himself in this position.
Last season he was banned for three matches after swinging an arm at Inter stopper Ivan Cordoba – an incident that the match official missed at the time.
Fabio Capello will certainly take a dim view of this latest development. Although a huge fan of the 24-year-old, the Juve Coach is all too aware of the increasing frequency of Ibrahimovic’s indiscretions.
The Malmo-born forward has only just served a ban for a foolish sending off in the final minutes of his side’s Champions League win over Bayern Munich this month, after which Don Fabio insisted he would put the player right.
"We will sort him out," he had claimed. "He is young and needs to learn about attitude, but we will put him in line."
It appears that Capello will have to draw that line again.

Don't get me wrong here, Chiellini is a great young player, however yesterday he just did not impress me at all and gave the ball away too much. His crosses from the wing were terrible most of the time and I have to say I thought it was a shot, not a pass. Both Blasi and Chiellini were the two worst players on the pitch for Juventus yesterday in my honest opinion.
I agree with you, that his crosses need working on. Though the thing that I like about him is, that he actually is in the position to cross. We all love Pessotto, but he does not give us the attacking options, which Chiellini on the hand does give us. Chiellini is a two-way player, he is both involved in attack and defence. With Zambrotta on the other flank doing the same tactically, we've got some balanced wings.
Though Mutu also takes some credit for giving us some balanced wingplay against Treviso, opposite to normally only having crosses from the right from Camo. Nedved, a good player and can really spark the attack, does not really offer much width.
Back to Chiellini, I still think his assist was meant as a pass. Though that's in the eye of the beholder.. Also giving Chiellini below 6 or even 5.5 seems harsh to me, as all our players yesterday weren't all that far apart from each other in their respective performances.

Juventus vs Treviso 3-1
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.

Capello: “We’ve been good!”
Fabio Capello is satisfied with the team’s performance and the win over Treviso, which is the twelveth out of the thirteen matches played in the championship. The Bianconeri boss said: “We’ve been good, we played a good match, playing like we wanted and how we expected. I’m very happy about how we faced the match, we were playing well in the first half too when we went one goal down, the only problem was that we could not realize our scoring chances. Treviso were positioned well on the pitch, they attempted on goal twice and scored once. We showed continuity, we did not lose control when we went one goal down against skillful and strong minded opponents. Undoubtedly, we felt some pressure as it is never easy to catch up, against any team. I was happy about what we were doing and hopeful too because we were playing and fighting with aggression and finally everything went well”. He’s asked about Ibrahimovic who did not scored but turned out to be a precious assist man: “He’s very good and fast when he moves along the flanks, he can put in very fast balls. A great player for a great Juve”.
