    Dybala looks by far the main threat for Juventus. Rest of the team haven't done very much.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,982 ✭✭✭MeMen2_MoRi_


    The game has a feel of the Sheffield/Chelsea about it, Juve slow in their build up, Atalanta being allowed to get in position to defend.

    Nsfw.. looked like nuts were being cracked, it seems he has none he recovered so quickly.

    They really need to fix this stupid handball rule :/


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,611 ✭✭✭✭ERG89


    I think without a pen we would have been waiting a while for the Juve goal. Atalanta haven't been very authoritive in the second half though.

    Some power in that hit

    Commentators said watch out for his left foot shot.. :rolleyes: :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 56,089 ✭✭✭✭Headshot


    ffs what the hell is he suppose to do with that handball

    The rules are disgraceful


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,611 ✭✭✭✭ERG89


    I swear Juve's main tactic in this game is kick it up towards their hands.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,982 ✭✭✭MeMen2_MoRi_


    Crazy stuff, fcuk me

    I'm sure the idiot lawmakers to get around these penalty controversies will order footballers to amputate their arms


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,611 ✭✭✭✭ERG89


    That tactic might work in Italy but Juve will suffer elsewhere if that's the best they can muster up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,228 ✭✭✭kksaints


    Very frustrating that they're very innocuous handball but by the interpretation of the handball that's used in Italy they're both penalties. Real shame for Atalanta.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,611 ✭✭✭✭ERG89


    Boy that is against the run of play so far.

    Deserved equaliser, more than questionable keeping tho.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,611 ✭✭✭✭ERG89


    Napoli ahead. Mertens but Donnarumma could have done better even with a deflection.

    I think if I open my window I will hear Gattuso shouting.


    2-2, Kessie pen. This is a good game in spite of there not being a whole lot on the table.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,611 ✭✭✭✭ERG89


    Ends 2-2, game fell apart a bit on excitement late on despite the red card for Saelemaekers. (Thats a lot of e's)


    MOTM: Gattuso for this

    Atalanta well and truly getting that 2-2 draw out of their systems.. 6-1 Vs Brescia 60 odd mins gone..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,228 ✭✭✭kksaints


    Good game between Sassuolo and Juventus. Juve got two early goals but Sassuolo have got one back and had Juve under pressure for long spells in the first half.

    He'll probably score now but can anyone tell me what does Bernardeschi add to the Juventus team? He's not particularly good at shooting or at passing, he drifts out of matches, doesn't work particularly hard, he might be a good dribbler but surely Douglas Costa is a better option than him?

    Spite to Fiorentina???

    Just checked that Juve spent €40million on him. Geez, that's too much as an act of spite. Maybe Juve will buy Chiesa during the transfer window to try and piss Fiorentina off again.

    2-2 in Sassuolo

    What a free kick to equalise

    Sassuolo are really a tidy team


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 56,089 ✭✭✭✭Headshot


    Sassuolo 3-2

    What a game


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,611 ✭✭✭✭ERG89


    Pity that nobody was pushing Juve this year and benefitting from these results. I'd take more joy from their performances lately but they will be fine. Instead it just confirms that Sarri won't be around next season.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 56,089 ✭✭✭✭Headshot


    I wouldnt be surprise if Juve get a peno via a handball to win the game


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 56,089 ✭✭✭✭Headshot


    ffs Sassuolo should be winning this

    They play some lovely 1 to 2 passing


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,611 ✭✭✭✭ERG89


    I wonder are Juve any bit tempted to get rid of Sarri soon as they have f**k all of a chance in Europe the way they have been set up all season. Even at his best Ronaldo can't make up when you are being given trouble by Milan and Sassuolo who aren't exactly a Man City or Bayern.

    Yeah. Gasp will be hooked, I think

    They won't piss of the Viola fans. Most think he's been awful this season and that his head has been turned.

    Huge match tomorrow.

    Genoa V Lecce
