Ha, this proves my suspicion, these Juventus guys are FIFA players. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) PES 1 - JUV 5.

Surely, this Serie B team couldn't have fallen into Juve's arms in a better moment. After the CL tie and this match, all the Inter shock will be gone.

Agreed.

Pescara's defending was just Sunday league level.

Still if it had been us we would have made a meal out of just getting one goal. You have to admire how Juve move as a unit. That's the one thing I really envy from them. They're such a cohesive unit.

@ Filippo, it doesn't really matter, these last 2 games were probably the easiest they'll play all season (until Pescara visit Turin that is). Did you really expect Juve to curl into the fetal position and self-distruct after the Inter game?

In fact I think this is good, as it lulls them back into a false sense of security, where had there been tougher games against harder opposition which they fought for and won it would have been a bigger marale booster

It's nice to get it out of their system though. Had they play Chelsea/Shakhtar after Inter, then followed it up with a Napoli/Roma/Lazio/no walkover game, they could've started to slip and lose confidence.

2 wins, 10 goals, later that aint gonna happen.

No, I did not expect such a thing to happen - but a loss of confidence and momentum.

False security? I don't know.


Indeed.

Why did they put the Rome Derby in the afternoon and not as an main event? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

This game isn't going to last if the rain keeps up.

If the lights keep going out at Stadio Olimpico, should just let the fireworks light up the place ... but someone should just stop this game, you can barley pass the ball on Lazios left side.
At least Totti is looking briilliant as usuall.

Candreva scored a 30 yard free kick with poor goalkeeping. Klose has just put Lazio 2-1 up.

Roma are the masters at not being able to defend a lead.

I saw it coming and now De Rossi got himself an unnecessary red card (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

edit: hahah not a proper Rome derby without any drawls.. Great goal from Pjanic!!!

What a ball from Michael Bradley and Osvaldo nearly with a dramatic last second goal

Good match the Roman derby, sorry I wasted my time with Milan. Why didn't they play in an evening venue?

Oh and yes...this has been bothering me for weeks. Why is this Alessi guy now Juve's "coach"? Why did they part with Carrera?

Aye, that's been puzzling me as well.

Carrera is Juventus' First Team Coach and Alessio is the team's Assistant Coach but as he was also banned from football(well not completely, just like Conte) after the hearings, albeit with a much shorter sentence, Carrera was given the responsibility to handle the press and so on. After Alessio's suspension ran out, he came back to cover for Conte because of his superior hierarchical position.
