UEFA Champions Leage Final 2015

The man is a genius. Vidal complements him brilliantly as well, Juventus are right back in this now.

Vidal won’t finish this half at this rate.

Juventus need to slow things down the same way they did against Real Madrid and try and get to half-time no more than one down. The problem for them is that Barcelona are much better than Real Madrid.

Juve need to keep it and make Barca press

That was a good chance for Morata. Really poor effort.

Much better from Juve now. They actually started well but after the goal they needed to slow things down to play back into it as Nembo says.

Evra, class is permanent.

Tevez hasn’t been in the game at all so far. :frowning:

Yes he has

He hasn’t held up the ball, has he had a shot at goal, are Tipp windy cunts?

Pogba has been too quiet. Disappears sometimes when it’s not going his way.

Messi has been contained well by Juventus.

He’s been involved more than most Juve players

What an absolute waste of a corner.

George seems to have taken to calling every Juve player Morata.

One chance is all he needs though at the same time.

George is alright.

Barzagli has been immense.

Usually with fatal consequences in European Cup Finals.

Fiorentina 1957, Inter 1972, Juventus 1973, Juventus 1983, Roma 1984, Sampdoria 1992, Milan 1993 & 95, Juventus 1997 & 98 all conceded the first goal and lost (in Roma’s case on the penalty shoot out lottery). Of those 10 sides, 8 of them failed to score, only Roma in 1984 and Juventus in 1997 bucking that particular trend.

On the 12 occasions, Italian sides have lifted the trophy, only on the very first occasion with Milan in 1963 did any of the twelve concede the first goal (or indeed fall behind at any stage in the final).

Beautiful toe bog by Luis. Very unlucky. And almost scores again.
