Italy’s champions get on the pitch for the pre-match training wearing the No. 28 shirts made by the industrious warehousemen. Capello’s squad is welcomed at Livorno by about two thousands Bianconeri supporters who cheer them waving tricolour flags. Juventus repay them by taking the lead on 10’ minutes: a fine Kapo action who dribbles an opponents at the edge of the box, he serves Nedved and the latter shoots it it (0-1). Livorno answer back with Lucarelli and a couple of actions by Protti, who hits the crossbar in the final minutes into the first half. On the Bianconeri’s side, Ibrahimovic’s drive is worth the note, after a fine pass with Trezeguet, and Zambrotta’s finish from the edge of the box.
In the second half, Chimenti and Zalayeta replace Buffon and Ibrahimovic. Livorno fight back to turn the result upside down, scoring with Protti, on a header (2’) and Lucarelli (10’). On the 2-1 result for the home side, Juventus raise the pressure and get close to goal with Zalayeta, and they earn the draw on 21’ minutes thanks to Trezeguet’s goal. The Frenchman is assisted by Zalayeta, he shoots on the turn well and beats Mareggini with a left-footed kick (2-2). And this is the end. Celebration is going to continue next Sunday at Delle Alpi..
