Bonucci rues wasteful Juventus Sep 18, 2013 Leonardo Bonucci has defended Juventus’ performance in their disappointing 1-1 draw with Copenhagen. http://markting10.nl/ The Old Lady were firm favourites to make a winning start to their Champions League campaign, but they were frustrated by a Danish side who proved difficult to break down. “If you take away those first 10 minutes then I think we played well,” the defender noted. “It just wasn't enough though. “Unfortunately their goal came from a lucky deflection. For the rest of the game we were the only side creating openings, but that's how it goes in Europe. “If you don't take your chances, you pay for it in points.” Bonucci was part of a three-man defence which saw summer signing Angelo Ogbonna make his Champions League debut. “He can play in all of the defensive roles,” added Bonucci. “I think he did well in starting up play as well. “He’s a really good guy and a great defender. He will become a strong point for Juventus across the season.”

I don’t remember so many chances one-on-one with the goalkeeper.” http://markting10.nl/ Juventus were held in their Champions League opener in Denmark despite having 22 chances – more than any other side in today’s games. It was remarkably similar to last year’s 1-1 draw with Danes Nordsjaelland. “I don’t think anyone was underestimated, especially with last season’s lesson, though this was even worse than Nordsjaelland, as it was a siege,” Conte told Sky Sport Italia. “Experience teaches me if you don’t put the ball in the net then you’re not going to win. We have to learn that no matter how many chances you create, they have to go in. I don’t remember another time when we had so many chances one-on-one with the goalkeeper and from point-blank range.” Swedish goalkeeper Johan Wiland performed heroics in the Copenhagen goal, despite his poor start to the season. “It’s amazing people said the goalkeeper was in crisis, but he performed 11 amazing saves. Even with his performance, we still should’ve done better to score. It’s a shame, especially seeing the result in Turkey, as winning today would’ve put us in a very strong position.” Elsewhere in Group B, Carlo Ancelotti’s Real Madrid won 6-1 away to Galatasaray with a Cristiano Ronaldo hat-trick. “This is football and if you don’t get it over the line then you risk defeat. I fielded some taller players today to counter their power in the air, but we still conceded from a set play,” noted Conte, who surprisingly left Fernando Llorente on the bench. “I made some players warm up, including Llorente and Giovinco, as I wanted to see how the game was going to develop. Against a side with players who are strong in the air but slow, it would be stupid to play with tall forwards. Tevez, Quagliarella and Giovinco gave them the most problems, as they are shorter and quick. “They worked for the team and had great chances. This felt like a cursed game. Copenhagen were playing only to get corners or free kicks to float it into the box. “We tried to bring more pace down the flanks, but at the end of the day if the ball doesn’t go in the net, we’re here talking about thin air. “Inevitably in the first 25 minutes we met a team that went all out, though we also moved the ball around a bit too slowly. Perhaps we should’ve spread the play more, as we did in the second half, and their tempo also dropped because they couldn’t keep that up. “The spaces opened up and we were able to create chances for our forwards that unfortunately we didn’t make the most of.”

We got it wrong at the start, then wasted some great chances, but we should’ve won here,” he told Sky Sport Italia. The Bianconeri still ended up winning their group last term and reached the quarter-finals. “We hope it can end up like last season! It wasn’t the same game, as we created much more than against Nordsjaelland and missed a few from point-blank range. “We wanted to start with three points and didn’t manage it, but if we play the way we did in the second half and can put the ball in the net, then we’ll go far.”

I could’ve scored, but the goalkeeper did very well.”

We’re starting with an uphill struggle.” http://markting10.nl/ The Bianconeri dominated the match in Denmark but, just like last season against Nordsjaelland, only managed a 1-1 draw. “It was a disappointment, as we dropped two points. We pushed hard and had the chances to win, but it seemed like last season at Nordsjaelland,” Quagliarella told Sky Sport Italia. “We should’ve scored and won the game, but we know that we’re starting with a bit of an uphill struggle. “They started very strong and the Coach had warned us about that. We didn’t hold up to their rhythm and should’ve done. Apart from that early goal from a set play, Gigi Buffon had nothing to do.” Real Madrid are top of Group B after a thumping 6-1 victory away to Galatasaray.

Sep 17, 2013 Juventus boss Antonio Conte was incredulous at his team’s inability to take their chances after they were held to a 1-1 draw against Copenhagen in Denmark for their Champions League Group B opener. http://markting10.nl/ The Bianconeri dominated the vast majority of the encounter after falling behind to a 14th-minute Nicolai Jorgensen goal, but sloppy finishing meant that they were not able to add to Fabio Quagliarella’s 54th minute effort and take all three points back to Turin. Conte was left shaking his head at his side’s profligacy, venting to reporters that his players must turn opportunities into goals, regardless of the heroics of Copenhagen goalkeeper Johan Wiland. "I do not think we have ever created so many opportunities to score in one single game before during my period as Juventus coach," he told reporters. "During my career I have learnt that creating at least 10 glorious opportunities to score is not enough to win games if you don't put the ball in. Their goalkeeper was just amazing but we also helped him with some poor finishing." The 44-year-old also dismissed suggestions that his team had taken the match for granted and pointed out their record in the group stage last season. "I don't think we underestimated them because last year we drew one game in Denmark as well," he retorted. Real Madrid’s simultaneous 6-1 thrashing of Galatasaray saw Juve lose early ground to the Spanish outfit in the battle for supremacy in Group B.

F.C. KOBENHAVN 1 - 1 JUVENTUS Nicolai Jörgensen (14′) Fabio Quagliarella (54′) September 17, 2013 8:45 PM Parken Stadium — Copenhagen Referee: Ivan Bebek (Croatia) Attendance:‬ 36524‎ Player Ratings Goal rates every player as Johan Wiland produced a superb performance between the sticks to ensure a valuable point for the Danish champions. Sep 17, 2013 FC Copenhagen Johan Wiland - A man-of-the-match display from the Swede between the sticks. Showed brilliant reflexes and agility to deny Juventus on numerous occasions and helped his side to hold on to a valuable point. Lars Jacobsen - Often struggled to keep tight to Peluso but did help to hold a well-organised defensive line which caught Tevez and Quagliarella offside several times. Olof Mellberg - A solid and assured display against his former club, made possible by a series of well-timed tackles and crucial headers. Pierre Bengtsson - Made a fantastic contribution in the first half by providing a good attacking outlet on the overlap. His teasing free kick set up Copenhagen's opener. Ragnar Sigurdsson - Struck up a good understanding with Mellberg although he did struggle with Quagliarella's movement and aerial prowess in the second half. Christian Bolaños - The Costa Rican produced a hard-working display to help Copenhagen dominate the midfield battle in the first half. Claudemir - Showed his Brazilian flair with a series of neat skills and footwork. Contributed to Copenhagen's successful pressing game which helped to restrict Pirlo's impact. Thomas Delaney - Tracked back time and time again to help out his defence and was responsible for marking Tevez when the Argentine dropped deep, which he did to good effect. Daniel Braaten - The 31-year-old impressed on his first start for the club with a series of dangerous runs cutting in from the left. Fanendo Adi - The club's top goalscorer this season struggled to threaten Buffon in the Juventus net but his constant running and willingness to work for the team caused the defence problems. Nicolai Jörgensen - Was rewarded for his persistence with a goal in the first half when he showed good predatory instinct to poke home Bengtsson's cross from close range. Substitutions Georg Margreitter - Was introduced with moments to spare in a bid to help Copenhagen hold on to a valuable point. Rurik Gislason - Helped to shore up the Copenhagen midfield and he produced a crucial block late on to deny Chiellini. Youssef Toutouh - Gave Copenhagen some fresh legs in midfield but he had little time to make an impact. http://markting10.nl/ Juventus Gianluigi Buffon - He was relatively untested between the sticks although he did show good command of his area from crosses. Was let down by his defence for Jorgensen's opener. Leonardo Bonucci - An uninspiring defensive display from the Bianconeri on the whole and Bonucci was given a harder game than he would perhaps have anticipated as Jorgensen and Adi caused him problems with their clever movement. Angelo Obinze Ogbonna - Looked uncertain on his Champions League debut and failed to deal with Bengtsson's free kick which led to Copenhagen's opener. Giorgio Chiellini - An uncharacteristically shaky performance from the Juventus stopper, whose game was marred by a series of defensive errors. Was dominant in the air, however. Stephan Lichtsteiner - A typical, tireless showing from the Swiss wing-back who was a constant threat down the right with his mazy dribbling and accurate crossing. Also tracked back brilliantly to aid the defence. Arturo Vidal - The Chilean's recent goalscoring spree was brought to a halt this evening in a game where he struggled to make an impact offensively. However, his combative style and neat passing was crucial to Juventus' second-half fightback. Andrea Pirlo - Not a vintage performance from the veteran midfielder who struggled to penetrate the Copenhagen defence with his passing. Looked a bit leggy in the closing stages and is perhaps in need of a rest. Paul Pogba - It would be a surprise to see Marchisio waltz back into the starting line-up based on Pogba's form. Looked composed on the ball and his powerful approach helped Juventus to dominate the second half. However, he did miss a sitter to level the scores in the first half. Federico Peluso - Impressed in Asamoah's absence and got into some good advanced positions down the left. His accurate crossing was always a threat and he was the architect for Quagliarella's equaliser. Carlos Tévez - Looked Juventus' most dangerous attacking threat with his clever movement and willingness to drop deep to collect the ball. However, he was well tracked by Delaney and lacked incision in the final third. Missed a glorious chance to win the match in stoppage-time. Fabio Quagliarella - Was selected ahead of Vucinic and found himself well marshalled by Mellberg and Sigurdsson throughout the first half. However, he was impressive after the break and repaid his coach's faith, levelling the scores with a neat finish before later heading against the crossbar. Substitutions Mauricio Isla - Had little time to influence proceedings as he was introduced with only a few minutes to spare but did set up a glorious chance which Tevez spurned in stoppage time. Paolo De Ceglie - Provided some fresh legs down the left late on and produced some teasing deliveries into the box. Sebastian Giovinco - Was introduced in place of Quagliarella late on but failed to seize his opportunity when it came, missing a presentable one-on-one chance to give Juventus the win.

F.C. KOBENHAVN 1 - 1 JUVENTUS Nicolai Jörgensen (14′) Fabio Quagliarella (54′) September 17, 2013 8:45 PM Parken Stadium — Copenhagen Referee: Ivan Bebek (Croatia) Attendance:‬ 36524‎ Deja-vu performance in Copenhagen for Juventus Sep 17, 2013 It was a case of deja-vu in Copenhagen yet again as goalkeeping heroics and squandered opportunities ensured Juventus only managed a point in the opening match of their Champions League season. http://markting10.nl/ Last year, you could say Nordsjaelland's Jesper Hansen was out to impress against Juventus because he was a fan of the Old Lady. He desperately hoped to get recognised so that maybe, just maybe, he would fulfil his dream and replace Gianluigi Buffon when the captain retired. However, tonight's Danish hero was Johan Wiland, who performed even better, making 11 outstanding saves to halt Juventus and stun the Italians. Copenhagen have been somewhat tragic in the Superliga this season. No wins at home, three defeats and four draws, their only success came against Viborg away. They have conceded more goals than they have scored and have already sacked and replaced their coach. Considered weak defensively and physically incapable, no one imagined they could seriously challenge the champions of Italy. However, Stale Solbakken got his tactics spot on, producing a performance that stunned the opponents and dazzled the home fans. Playing a narrow defence, Copenhagen were compact, stayed tight and were quick to close down space. They allowed the Italians to dominate the wide areas, aware of their own ability to defend against crosses into the box. Blessed with height and physically imposing players, they ensured that not one of the opponents' 49 crosses was met with an accurate header. In midfield, the home side were careful not to allow the Bianconeri too much control while players sacrificed themselves for the cause -- they desperately sought a result. Organised and efficient, they perhaps deserved to score the opening goal of the game as Juventus struggled to defend effectively. The Bianconeri were imprecise, failed to make the usual high number of interceptions and were predictably wasteful in front of goal. Long balls over the top were often preferred to slow construction of attacks while high crosses were attempted as opposed to low passes on the ground. Whatever they tried, Copenhagen halted. The second half saw a marginally more intelligent Juve. Passes into the box were now low so attempts could actually be made to score and Fabio Quagliarella soon managed an equaliser. This was quickly followed up by a plethora of shots at goal that were all in vain as Copenhagen held on for dear life. As was written in the article straight after the Derby d'Italia, Juventus still have problems in the final third. With Federico Peluso and Stephan Lichtsteiner tired, Conte chose to replace them with like for like players -- an understandable decision, but why not gamble and go out with all three forwards? More importantly, why not give Fernando Llorente a chance on the pitch when one header from him could have well sealed the deal. With so many crosses into the box, surely he would have made some sort of impact? While Juventus had started the second half attempting more low passes into the box, they swiftly went back to crossing high and perhaps it seemed Giovinco's arrival on to the pitch was a way or reminding them to get back to low balls and fast footwork. Indeed when Conte was questioned on his decision to leave the former Bilbao forward on the bench, he swiftly explained: "Against a side with players who are strong in the air but slow, it would be stupid to play with tall forwards. Tevez, Quagliarella and Giovinco gave them the most problems, as they are shorter and quick." Giovinco certainly made life difficult for the opponents with his excellent ball control and fast movements but he couldn't do enough to manage the win. Strikers aside, the real problem with Juventus tonight was the lack of a quality winger, a player like Fiorentina's Juan Cuadrado, who can impose his pace and class to create numerical superiority and deliver the ball into the middle for his onrushing teammates. The lack of said player was discussed in further detail in a previous article. Lichtsteiner, as great as his dogged determination and relentless running can be, is simply not capable of offering what Conte needs on the flanks and Copenhagen were more than aware of that. Yet regardless of the problems, Juventus managed more shots on goal than any other side in Europe on the night and were perhaps unlucky to come up against a goalkeeper on his most perfect of nights. One can only hope the Old Lady will be more clinical in her next group game, but for now, it's back to focusing on domestic duties.

At half-time, it looked as though things could have ended up worse, with the Danes leading through Nicolai Jorgensen's 13th-minute goal, but Fabio Quagliarella levelled nine minutes into the second half. Quagliarella also headed against the bar as the Italians created enough chances to win several games, only to see them go begging thanks to a series of splendid saves by Wiland. Conte had warned his side ahead of the match that they could not afford the sort of slow start to the competition they had last year, when they drew their opening three games before recovering to qualify. But his team appeared not to heed his advice. Carlos Tevez fired wide following an Andrea Pirlo corner as they served an early warning to the hosts, but the Italians fell behind when Pierre Bengtsson swept a free-kick into the area and Jorgensen was on hand to slot the ball home from close range. Juventus almost responded in the 20th minute, but Wiland produced two superb saves to keep his side in front. First he tipped Giorgio Chiellini's header from an Arturo Vidal cross over the bar and then, from the resulting Pirlo corner, turned away Paul Pogba's effort. The Italians kept coming, Angelo Ogbonna heading over and Quagliarella and Tevez shooting over. Pogba then had another golden chance, only to head wide as the visitors trailed at the break. Conte's side started the second half in similar vein, Tevez bringing another save from Wiland. But the 32-year-old keeper was finally beaten in the 54th minute when Federico Peluso fed Quagliarella, who fired high into the net from the centre of the area. The search was now on for the winner, but still Wiland proved a huge obstacle. He parried Pirlo's driven shot from just outside the area and then made a rather easier stop to keep out Stephan Lichtsteiner's effort two minutes later. When Quagliarella beat him again in the 64th minute, the crossbar came to the keeper's rescue as the striker's header stayed out. Vidal was the next to be denied by Wiland before the wasteful Pogba headed wide from a Pirlo cross. Still Juventus carved out chance after chance, and produced miss after miss. Sebastian Giovinco's shot from the right side of the area was blocked by Wiland, who saw Tevez's injury-time effort go harmlessly wide as Copenhagen held out.

If you want to disagree with me, go right ahead and do so. http://markting10.nl/ But Juventus had 33 total shots in their trip to Denmark last year. They recorded 27 total shots against FC Copenhagen on Tuesday night. That's 60 shots towards a Danish goal in two games, a number where you'd think Antonio Conte's men would fly back to Turin with a bunch of goals to their pocket and feeling good about their performance. Not so fast. Juventus left both of those games with 1-1 draws. Chances were created. But with those chances came world-class saves from a 32-year-old goalkeeper having a career night between the sticks, lots of missed opportunities and a whooooole lot of frustration created. Conte rotated the squad like he said he would. And that squad delivered — to a point. They created a ton of chances. They didn't play well — or anything close to the way they went into the international break — but the a rather mediocre performance still produced as many chances as anybody else in the opening matchday. The one problem: They didn't take advantage of them whatsoever. Yeah, well what good is that if you can only manage to finish one of them? Exactly. Random thoughts and random observations •When are we going to be worried about Giorgio Chiellini's form? King Kong had another forgettable showing, the second in as many games. •Johan Wiland is why Copenhagen came away with a point from this game. Not Juventus' stupid defending on the opening goal. Nope. You're going to need a second hand to count the amount of top-shelf saves Wiland made to keep the score either in favor of Copenhagen or even at 1-1. From one keeper to another, that was a truly unbelievable game. The Man of the Match discussion starts and ends with him. •I love Antonio Conte. I really do. But you're trying to tell me that Fernando Llorente, a guy who stands 6-foot-5 and thrives on service in the air, couldn't have helped Juventus try and get a goal. How many crosses did the Juve wingbacks attempt against Copenhagen? Okay, so it was close to 50, but there's no reason to think Llorente couldn't have put at least a couple of those on goal no matter what kind of insane form Copenhagen's goalkeeper was in. •If Juventus are drawn against another Danish side in next year's Champions League I will be enraged. •It doesn't matter if it's coming off the bench or playing from the start, Fabio Quagliarella scores goals in the Champions League. It's a good thing that the merry-go-round transfer with Genoa and Roma didn't go through. Quagliarella is still a valuable piece to this puzzle. There's no way around it. •I had no problems with the squad rotation. Andrea Barzagli and Mirko Vucinic had both been hurting over the last few weeks with their respective injuries and Kwadwo Asamoah had played a ton of minutes before, during, and after the international break. Juventus fielded a squad good enough to beat Copenhagen no matter what the situation was. They just didn't get the job done. •I'm not pushing the panic button by any means. Remember how things started last year in the Champions League. But other than starting against Copenhagen at Juventus Stadium, things couldn't have been drawn up any better for Juve. Unfortunately, they're coming back home to Turin with one point, not three. This team just likes to make things hard on themselves in Europe, I guess.

Sep 17, 2013 In the other Group B game, Real Madrid earned a resounding 6-1 victory away to Galatasaray. http://markting10.nl/ The Bianconeri began their Champions League campaign in Denmark, where last season they were held to a 1-1 draw by Norsdjaelland. Mirko Vucinic, Kwadwo Asamoah and Andrea Barzagli were rested in favour of Fabio Quagliarella, Federico Peluso and Angelo Ogbonna, while Claudio Marchisio, Martin Caceres and Simone Pepe were injured. Copenhagen were champions of Denmark, but had a terrible start to their domestic season, managing only seven points from eight games. It was Copenhagen who broke the deadlock with Nicolai Jorgensen, who was able to bundle the ball over the line from four yards after a Pierre Bengtsson free kick was not dealt with properly. There was almost an equaliser moments later, but Johan Wiland spilled a Carlos Tevez shot and Quagliarella tested him on the follow-up. Juve had a double scoring opportunity denied by amazing Wiland saves. First the 32-year-old goalkeeper fingertipped Giorgio Chiellini’s header over from point-blank range, then from the resulting corner used his knee to deflect a Paul Pogba effort over the bar from a couple of yards. Tevez curled off target and Pogba’s header was inches wide, while Stephan Lichtsteiner scuffed his volley from a very promising position. After the restart Wiland was again forced into heroics in the Copenhagen goal. Tevez sprung the offside trap on a ball over the top and was one-on-one when Wiland stuck out a foot to parry the low shot. Juve finally found a way through when Peluso’s low cross was let through by a Tevez dummy and Quagliarella blasted under the bar from 10 yards. Quagliagol had also scored an equaliser in last season’s Champions League opener away to Chelsea and this was his fifth strike in eight games in this competition for the Bianconeri. Another fine Peluso cross from the left set up Lichtsteiner, but the scissor-kick volley was well over, as he had the time to control it. Moments later a long-range Andrea Pirlo snapshot was beaten away at the base of the near post. Quagliarella was very unlucky on 63 minutes, as his glancing header looped up to land on the crossbar with Wiland beaten. Copenhagen spent most of the second half pinned back, but had a chance too when Jorgensen drilled inches over the bar from distance. Wiland rushed off his line to close down Arturo Vidal, then the goalkeeper parried a fine Tevez strike and from the corner Pogba’s header glanced just past the far post. Wiland used his legs again on substitute Sebastian Giovinco, as Juve had 22 attempts on goal (nine on target) compared to Copenhagen’s eight. In stoppages Tevez had the chance to win it, but poked wide from Mauricio Isla's assist from six yards.

Sep 17, 2013 Juventus had to settle for a 1-1 draw with Copenhagen after dominating much of their opening Champions League encounter in Denmark. http://markting10.nl/ Nicolai Jorgensen gave the hosts the lead in the 15th minute in the Group B clash before Fabio Quagliarella levelled the scores 10 minutes into the second half. It was scant reward for a Juventus side that enjoyed much more of the ball and created far better chances, only for wasteful finishing to deny Antonio Conte's side. Stale Solbakken made one change from the side that drew 1-1 with Esbjerg at the weekend, Igor Vetokele making way for Daniel Braaten. Conte made three changes from Saturday's 1-1 draw with Inter, with Angelo Ogbonna, Federico Peluso and Quagliarella coming in for Andrea Barzagli, Kwadwo Asamoah and Mirko Vucinic. The Italian champions had the first effort of note in the fifth minute, Carlos Tevez meeting Andrea Pirlo's cleverly-taken corner but firing wide of the right-hand post from an angle. Copenhagen took the lead after Juventus failed to deal with Pierre Bengtsson's deep free-kick from the right-hand side. As a crowd of players jumped to challenge for the ball inside the six-yard box, it fell kindly for Jorgensen, who took a touch and slotted home beyond a helpless Gianluigi Buffon. Juventus' response was immediate as Johan Wiland made two outstanding saves in a minute to keep his side in front midway through the half, keeping out efforts from Giorgio Chiellini and Paul Pogba when both players looked certain to score. Tevez then curled his shot a yard over the crossbar in the 32nd minute as Juventus continued to pen their opponents back in search of an equaliser. The second half began much as the first had ended, with the visitors in the ascendancy, and in the 52nd minute Tevez wasted a golden opportunity to level the scores. Pirlo's first-time ball over the top caught the home defence square, but the Argentine forward, clean through on goal, saw his effort saved by the legs of Wiland. Two minutes later, however, Juventus finally got the goal their dominance had warranted as Tevez stepped over Peluso's cross from the left and Quagliarella swept the ball high past Wiland from 10 yards. Quagliarella was then inches away from a second in the 65th minute, his header from Lichsteiner's cross flicking the top of the bar and bouncing away to safety. With 20 minutes to go, Jorgensen went close in a rare Copenhagen attack, driving forward before unleashing a shot from 20 yards that flew narrowly over Buffon's crossbar. Arturo Vidal could have put Juventus in front with 15 minutes remaining after collecting Tevez's headed flick, but his weak effort rebounded away off Wiland's chest. Moments later, Tevez was again denied by Wiland before Pogba's header bounced just wide of the post with the goalkeeper stranded. With 10 minutes to go, substitute Sebastian Giovinco was the next man to be denied by the inspired Wiland as Juventus were left searching in vain for a winner.

Peccato per Tevez, meriterebbe il goal della vittoria.
