Padoin non sei da CL.

Para Neuer.

É il momento di Pirlo ....

Scontro made in France ... Pogba batte Ribery.

Purtroppo ci stiamo sedendo.

Padoin salva alla disperata su Mandzukic.

L'arbitro SPAGNOLO comincia a sbattere fuori i tedeschi per l'eventuale semifinale contro il Barca o il Real.

Il calcione lo prende Ribery stavolta!

Sembrano essersi ribaltati i ruoli dall'andata. Stavolta sono i tedeschi ad essere intimoriti.

Inizio incoraggiante.

L'arbitro spagnolo dá la mano solo a Buffon. Lahm non lo guarda neanche.

Pavel commosso. @@

Grande Pavel! @@

Dopo il 3-0 ai Campioni d'Europa del Chelsea, ora tocca ai vicecampioni.

UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE - Quarter Final - 10-4-2013 (8:45 p.m.) ................ JUVENTUS - BAYERN Juventus Stadium - Turin Referee: Carlos Velasco Carballo (Spain) Line-ups: Juventus-Bayern Munich Apr 10, 2013 Juventus try to overturn their Champions League quarter-final tie with Bayern Munich, looking to Paul Pogba, Mirko Vucinic and Fabio Quagliarella. The Bianconeri lost the first leg 2-0 in Germany and were completely out-played, but Coach Antonio Conte has promised “a very different performance.” Arturo Vidal and Stephan Lichtsteiner sit out bans, while Sebastian Giovinco, Simone Pepe, Nicolas Anelka and Nicklas Bendtner are injured. Vucinic partners Quagliarella in attack, while Pogba steps in for the banned Vidal in midfield with Claudio Marchisio and Andrea Pirlo. Simone Padoin is the surprise pick on the flank with Kwadwo Asamoah taking the other side. Martin Caceres returns to the bench for the first time since his horrific car crash last month. Bayern Munich have already been celebrating over the past week, as they secured the Bundesliga title with a record-breaking 20-point lead and six rounds to spare. Javi Martinez was suspended in Munich, but returns to the side, while Toni Kroos is still unavailable after suffering a thigh strain in the first leg. Arjen Robben and Mandzukic will be hoping to again cause the Juve back line real problems. The last time these sides met in Turin was the 2009-10 group stage, when Juve had taken the lead only to collapse 4-1. The Bianconeri won 1-0 in the 2004-05 group phase and 2-1 in 2011-12. JUVENTUS: Buffon; Barzagli, Bonucci, Chiellini; Padoin, Pogba, Pirlo, Marchisio, Asamoah; Vucinic, Quagliarella Juventus bench: Storari, Caceres, De Ceglie, Peluso, Giaccherini, Matri, Isla BAYERN MUNICH: Neuer; Lahm, Dante, Van Buyten, Alaba; Schweinsteiger, Javi Martinez; Robben, T Muller, Ribery; Mandzukic Bayern bench: Starke, Rafinha, Boateng, Shaqiri, Luiz Gustavo, Pizarro, Gomez

JUVENTUS - BAYERN Juventus Stadium - Turin Referee: Carlos Velasco Carballo (Spain) Tardelli expects ‘perfect’ Marchisio Apr 10, 2013 Claudio Marchisio has been told to deliver for Juventus against Bayern Munich by former Bianconeri midfielder Marco Tardelli. “This match is far too important for Claudio to fail,” Tardelli, a 1982 World Cup winner, told the giornalaccio rosa dello Sport. “He has to demonstrate that he is up to the level of the greatest players. “I remind people that champions make the difference when it really counts. I expect a perfect game from him and maybe even a goal.” Juventus youth team graduate Marchisio has scored five goals in 24 League games this term, as well as two in seven Champions League matches. Marchisio is expected to start in a central midfield three which will be formed by Andrea Pirlo and Paul Pogba. The Bianconeri will go into tonight’s Champions League quarter-final tie 2-0 down from the first leg in Germany.

JUVENTUS - BAYERN Juventus Stadium - Turin Referee: Carlos Velasco Carballo (Spain) Vidal urges full fan support Apr 10, 2013 Arturo Vidal has called for the Juventus supporters to get fully behind the team when they play Bayern Munich this evening.

UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE - Quarter Final - 10-4-2013 (8:45 p.m.) ................ JUVENTUS - BAYERN Juventus Stadium - Turin Referee: Carlos Velasco Carballo (Spain) ‘Vucinic can win it for Juventus’ Apr 10, 2013 Mirko Vucinic can be the man to lead Juventus into the semi-finals of the Champions League, says Christian Panucci. The Montenegro international is recognised as one of the club’s most talented players, but he’s sometimes criticised for his inconsistency and his lack of goals. “Mirko is a champion and a friend,” Panucci said of his former Roma teammate in an interview with Tuttosport. “You know immediately whether he’s going to have a good or a bad game. He needs to do something special right at the start to get into the game. “When he gets frustrated, you have to make sure he remains calm.” Panucci added that Vucinic needs to be made to feel important and motivated in the right way. “Juventus boss Antonio Conte is good at stimulating his players, he transmits his belief in them,” the former stopper added. “I would stimulate him by telling him to win the game for me. Because Mirko is that kind of player. If he is in the mood then he can make the difference with his class. “I remember some mad Champions League performances from him while we were at Roma, against Chelsea and Manchester United.” Juventus have a mountain to climb in tonight’s quarter-final return given that they lost the first leg 2-0. “Vucinic can add the finishing touch, but he’ll also need the help of the entire side,” Panucci continued. “Juve will have to play to their best, but Bayern will also have to be under par because they are a great side.” Vucinic has scored nine goals in 26 League games this term, as well as two in seven Champions League ties.

Quagliarella is expected to start tonight’s game alongside Mirko Vucinic as the Old Lady attempt to overturn a 2-0 first leg disadvantage. “Fabio, you are a creative player,” the 1982 World Cup winner and former Juventus striker wrote in the giornalaccio rosa dello Sport. “Use your fantasy and instinct to surprise the Germans. Your sensational touch can make the difference.” The 29-year-old Quagliarella has scored four goals in six Champions League games so far this season.

Apr 10, 2013 Felipe Melo will be cheering on parent club Juventus in tonight’s Champions League encounter against Bayern Munich. The Brazilian international is currently playing his football on loan at Galatasaray, an outfit who were knocked out of the competition by Real Madrid on Tuesday. “I support Juventus,” he told Mediaset after expressing his disappointment at his side’s 5-3 aggregate reverse. “I hope that they can get through against Bayern and I think they can do it. They’ve proved themselves to be a strong team at home.” Juventus are currently 2-0 down in the quarter-final tie.

JUVENTUS - BAYERN Juventus Stadium - Turin Referee: Carlos Velasco Carballo (Spain) Juve should believe, says Mourinho Apr 10, 2013 Real Madrid boss Jose Mourinho believes Juventus can complete a comeback in tonight’s Champions League game against Bayern Munich. The Old Lady will go into the quarter-final tie 2-0 down after a comprehensive first leg defeat in Germany. But Mourinho has told the Bianconeri that his side’s loss at Galatasaray on Tuesday proves that ties last 180 minutes. “If Juventus believed before watching this game tonight, then they should believe even more now,” the former Inter boss noted. “And Juve tactician Antonio Conte will be the first to believe.” Real Madrid beat Galatasaray 3-0 in Spain a week ago, but were given an uncomfortable ride in Turkey last night as Gala collected a 3-2 win.
