Juventus 1-0 Roma
19 October 2021
This game provided us many a question mark going into it. From team selection, to formation, and so on. As things solidified, the dust cleared, and we took to the pitch. It could’ve been anyone’s match. Mad Max once again showed his tactical prowess. Showing that the sum of your parts can be far more […]
Torino 0-1 Juventus match report
4 October 2021
Today Massimiliano Allegri set the team up in 3-5-2 with the ball and as usual, 4-4-2 without. We started quite well and immediately had two golden opportunities. Unfortunately, in the 3rd minute, out of a counter when Matthijs de Ligt won the ball in the middle of the park, Moise Kean decided not to cross […]
JUVENTUS 1-0 CHELSEA
29 September 2021
Despite the fixture taking place in Turin, Juventus would begin the night as under dogs against the defending European Champions, Chelsea. As fate would have it the previous occasion these sides met on this stage in 2012 occurred in similar circumstances. The Old Lady unfancied underdogs, Chelsea reigning Champions of Europe and expected to top […]
Malmo 0-3 Juve Player ratings
15 September 2021
Tek – Thankfully wasn’t tested with any clear cut chances due to a very well organised rearguard. Positive to see him punching cleanly, and also coming out sharply to block an angle. A fresh start, I hope. 6 Bonucci – Imperious and unruffled throughout. 7 De Ligt – Solid performance and rarely in any danger. […]
Napoli 2-1 Juventus
12 September 2021
Despite the one way traffic of the opening 20-25 minutes – with 6 corners conceded in just 11 minutes – I felt that we looked quite solid. That Max had got the shape right and selection far from as bizarre as our last outing. And Napoli were growing bothered, after conceding the early goal which […]
Juve 0-1 Empoli
29 August 2021
10-15 minutes of high pressing, positive football gave way to a deafening reminder of the mess we have been in for many months, perhaps a few years. Last weekend we played better, quite well for the first half, and were undone by Tek’s calamitous individual errors. This time around we were set up to fail […]
Udinese 2-2 Juventus – Haphazard season opener
23 August 2021
What could have served as a solid, if unspectacular start to the new campaign, was transformed into disappointment as Polish keeper Szcesney threw away victory almost singlehandedly. And yet even with the promising signs in the first half, the game was overshadowed before kick off as rumours abounded that Ronaldo was benched which turned out […]
Solid start for La Nazionale
12 June 2021
I refused to get too carried away before the opening game. Qualification has been impressive, no doubt. Mancini has developed a system and squad which functions well in every area and buzzes forward with a beautiful chemistry in midfield and plenty of talent in the final third. The side has no real superstars, but the […]
Bologna 1-4 Juve overview
24 May 2021
On the final day of the season, Juve managed to produce a high level performance to crush Bologna 1-4, which due to Napoli’s failure to defeat Verona, raised us into champions league qualification at the death. It was an entertaining, well deserved victory with some beautiful interplay leading to two of the four goals. Pirlo […]
Atalanta 1-2 Juve COPPA ITALIA FINAL REVIEW
20 May 2021
One of our most solid performances of the season came at the right time…for the coppa italia at least. Both sides came out the blocks eager, with Atalanta doing most the offensive work in the first half hour in which they created several decent chances to score. Whilst we were far from awful, that same […]
