Juventus 0-2 Barcelona He recovers from the defeat in the Clsico with a creditable triumph
TBarcelona’s prestigious victory away from Juventus for 0-2 to carpet their way to the knockout stages, with all the ballots to be first of the group and have, in theory, a more affordable rival. Homework almost done.
Barcelona came out stung on your pride against Juventus and was about to go ahead in minute 3. Pjanic, one of the novelties in Koeman’s eleven, wanted to comply with the former’s law with a powerful shot that Szczesny had to serve with problems. In the continuation of the play, Pjanic himself entered the area and the ball ended up reaching Griezmann, who hit the wood with a left foot. He is not very lucky either French when you need it most. One goal and no assist in their last 19 games for a 120 million player.
They wanted Koemans to please their fans after the skid in the Classic and forget incidentally the institutional horse crisis that the club is experiencing, with Bartomeu and his recently resigned Board of Directors. In the midst of that power vacuum, the Dutch technician again made it clear that here, for the moment, he is in charge. Ansu fati, the best player of the team at the start of the season, to the bench to everyone’s surprise. I accompanied him Sergio Dest, one of those who also excite. Outside eleven Busquets, although that is less surprising, to make room for Pjanic. And to the field Dembl and Griezmann with Pedri, to give the kid confidence.
A mortal double with an inverted pirouette in the game in which you play half the group leadership against Juventus, yes, without Cristiano Ronaldo. It could go well or it could go wrong, but Koeman has not come as a spectator to be still. At 13′, Fortune smiled at Dembl with a shot that hit Bonucci and rose out of reach of Juve’s goal in surprising fashion.
On the next play, goal disallowed for Morata. Offside, he had scored after a rejection by Neto that hit him in the hand and allowed him to take it, although it was not worth it anyway. VAR review and everyone happy at Barcelona. With the wind in favor, Barcelona got loose and was about to make the second with a crossed shot of Messi. Of those that before they always entered and lately they. What has not changed is Morata, who must have a Offside record and goals disallowed. In 30 ‘, Cuadrado put it on from the right perfect to score, but I was offside.
That was where Juventus hurt, on the side of Jordi Alba. On the right wing with Square and with the one who dares to fall there. A highway that lacked the goal toll in the first half. The Italian team arrived in danger and also Barcelona, with the ‘Mosquito’ Dembl biting on each flight. Szczesny avoided the 0-2 after a great maneuver by the French, finer than his compatriot Griezmann, unable to finish the play in the rebound in the middle of the noise.
Barcelona went to rest with an advantage and with Araujo, substitute for the sanctioned Piqu, injured. With how short the central Barcelona is, Busquets had to leave to take the place of De Jong, who was a pair of emergency centrals with Lenglet. The setback was barely noticed, with a Juventus dominated by Barcelona struggling to generate some danger. And when he did, Morata was offside. In 56 ‘, third goal disallowed of the night after another shipment of Cuadrado arriving on the right that diverted the networks well.
In 62 ‘, Messi touched the goal again with a low shot that went close to the post. Pedri was also close, cheeky like few on the right at 17 years old. The kid is surely faster than Messi, stuck in the area where he used to be lethal. All his goals this season have been from penalties. In the 73rd minute, Cuadrado opted to dive against Lenglet in the middle of a slalom, but not col. The game was broken, and Griezmann failed again in the definition with a shot that was too crossed. At that point, the best news for Juve was the score.
Messi ended the suspense near 90 ‘, after a penalty for running over Bernardeschi to Ansu Fati. Barcelona will have to do very badly to escape the first place in a group completed by Ferencvaros and Dinamo Kiev.
