Entra il Iaquinta tedesco.

Tedeschi vicini al 3-0.

Gran pallone di Robben in area. Ci va bene di nuovo.

Complimenti a Ribery per il calcione a Vidal e per la sua antisportivitá. I veri Campioni non sanno solo giocare a pallone ...

Diverse decisioni discutibili dell'arbitro inglese stasera.

Conte ha letto il tuo post.

Questi sono i veri top players.

Bannato dal topic certamente.

Non riusciamo a fare un'azione decente.

Le punte titolari in campo.

Che faccia Conte.

Pirlo irriconoscibile stasera.

Hai detto niente!

UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE - Quarter Final - 2-4-2013 (8:45 p.m.) ................ BAYERN - JUVENTUS Allianz Arena - Munich Referee: Mark Clattenburg (England) HT 1-0: Juve trail in Munich Apr 2, 2013 Bayern Munich went in front within 30 seconds and have had Juventus under pressure ever since, but it’s still 1-0 at half-time. The Bianconeri were still unbeaten in the Champions League this season and kept five consecutive clean sheets going into the first leg of this quarter-final. Their track record in Munich was perfectly even thanks to a 1-0 win in 2004, a draw and a defeat. Juve also knocked German teams out in all five previous quarter-finals. Mirko Vucinic was still suffering from flu symptoms, so Alessandro Matri and Fabio Quagliarella started in attack. Javi Martinez was suspended and Holger Badstuber injured, but Bayern were fresh from a 9-1 Bundesliga victory over Hamburg. It was the worst possible start for the Bianconeri. Andrea Pirlo gave the ball away and David Alaba hit a speculative long-range effort that took a deflection off Arturo Vidal. Gigi Buffon was heading the wrong way and had to change direction, but slipped and couldn’t quite get there in time to keep out the shot in the opening 30 seconds. Juve’s run of four consecutive clean sheets in Europe was ended in bizarre fashion, but did not lose heart and Pirlo’s free kick landed on the roof of the net, then Vidal’s snapshot whistled wide. Bad news for Bayern, as Toni Kroos hobbled off with a suspected groin strain to make way for Arjen Robben. The Dutch international almost scored within three minutes of coming off the bench, as he pounced on an Andrea Barzagli error to shoot from seven yards, forcing Buffon to parry with his ankle. Barzagli gave the ball away again in the final third and Franck Ribery’s counter-attack was deflected inches past the near post. From that corner, a Dante glancing header went wide. Daniel Van Buyten also protested as Giorgio Chiellini stopped him getting to another corner. Bastian Schweinsteiger’s free kick floated just over the far top corner, but Juve were under pressure and continually giving the ball away in the final third. Another error allowed a Thomas Muller counter and Robben fired wide of the near post from a very promising position. Matri at full stretch just failed to get on the end of a long pass and Manuel Neuer plucked it off his foot. Robben’s weak angled drive was into Buffon’s arms and Ribery flashed a ball across the six-yard box, but Mario Mandzukic couldn’t make contact under pressure from Chiellini. Schweinsteiger blasted over the bar, but Juve finally created a chance in first half stoppages when Bonucci’s glancing header from a Pirlo corner landed on the roof of the net. Bayern 1-0 Juventus (Half-Time) Scorers: Alaba 1 (B) Bayern Munich: Neuer; Lahm, van Buyten, Dante, Alaba; Luiz Gustavo, Schweinsteiger; Muller, Kroos (Robben 16), Ribery; Mandzukic Juventus: Buffon; Barzagli, Bonucci, Chiellini; Lichtsteiner, Vidal, Pirlo, Marchisio, Peluso; Matri, Quagliarella Ref: Clattenburg (ENG)

Minuti difficilissimi.

UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE - Quarter Final - 2-4-2013 (8:45 p.m.) ................ BAYERN - JUVENTUS Allianz Arena - Munich Referee: Mark Clattenburg (England) Line-ups: Bayern-Juventus Apr 2, 2013 Fabio Quagliarella and Alessandro Matri step out for tonight’s Champions League quarter-final between Bayern Munich and Juventus. The first leg kicks off at 19.45 UK time (18.45 GMT) at the Allianz Arena in Munich. Antonio Conte had several concerns going into the game, as Sebastian Giovinco is nursing a bruised ankle from Esteban Cambiasso’s horror-tackle on Easter Saturday, while Mirko Vucinic missed that trip to Inter with flu symptoms. Both are on the bench, as Matri and Quagliarella reunite after their fine performance against Inter on Saturday. Federico Peluso is picked rather than Kwadwo Asamoah, as Stephan Lichtsteiner takes the other flank. Martin Caceres, Mauricio Isla, Simone Pepe and Nicklas Bendtner are all long-term absentees. Bayern are 20 points clear at the top of the Bundesliga table and a second-string side flattened Hamburg 9-2 on Saturday with Claudio Pizarro netting four. Juve have a nine-point advantage in the Serie A standings, but more importantly are unbeaten in nine European matches including four consecutive clean sheets. Arjen Robben and Mario Gomez are only fit for the bench, while Mario Mandzukic leads the 4-2-3-1 system. Javi Martinez is suspended and Holger Badstuber injured. Bayern Munich: Neuer; Lahm, van Buyten, Dante, Alaba; Luiz Gustavo, Schweinsteiger; Muller, Kroos, Ribery; Mandzukic Bayern Munich bench: Starke, Boateng, Tymoshchuk, Robben, Shaqiri, Pizarro, Gomez Juventus: Buffon; Barzagli, Bonucci, Chiellini; Lichtsteiner, Vidal, Pirlo, Marchisio, Peluso; Matri, Quagliarella Juventus bench: Storari, Marrone, Padoin, Pogba, Asamoah, Vucinic, Giovinco

UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE - Quarter Final - 2-4-2013 (8:45 p.m.) ................ BAYERN - JUVENTUS Allianz Arena - Munich Referee: Mark Clattenburg (England) Bayern-Juventus tie is 50-50, says Kohler The 1990 World Cup-winner admitted he is hoping the German side can come out on top, and expressed his admiration for the work of former team-mate Antonio Conte. Apr 2, 2013 Former Germany defender Jurgen Kohler believes the Champions League tie between Bayern Munich and Juventus is too close to call. The 47-year-old, who played for both clubs during his distinguished career, admitted that he would be supporting the Bundesliga side on Tuesday, though he feels the Italian champions' recent results will put them in a confident mood. "Although I played for four years for Juventus and only two for Bayern, I will be rooting for the German team when I watch the match on Tuesday," he told TZ. "I would rate their chances of progressing as fifty-fifty. "Clearly Juventus have to take into account the 9-2 win for Bayern against Hamburg, but the Turin side are themselves leaders in Italy and after the 2-1 win at Inter Milan travel to Munich with a very broad chest. "And with Antonio Conte, who was once a team-mate of mine at Juventus, the club has a coach who does a huge job." Kohler also spoke of his belief that Juventus can already consider this season a success after reaching the last eight of Europe's premier club competition for the first time since 2006. He added: "By the end of last year, Juventus remained 49 league matches unbeaten. That shows how much my former club is making a comeback. "Juve has had a difficult period since 2006 when they were relegated to Serie B. Reaching the quarter-finals of the Champions League can therefore be seen to be a success."

UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE - Quarter Final - 2-4-2013 (8:45 p.m.) ................ BAYERN - JUVENTUS Allianz Arena - Munich Referee: Mark Clattenburg (England) Bayern Munich are one of Europe's best, says Matri The Italy forward expressed his excitement at taking on the Bundesliga leaders and believes the Serie A champions have the tactical expertise to progress to the semi-finals. Apr 2, 2013 Juventus striker Alessandro Matri has described Bayern Munich as one of Europe's best sides ahead of their Champions League quarter-final clash on Tuesday. The Serie A champions travel to the Allianz Arena in the first leg to face last season's beaten finalists, and Matri has revealed the palpable excitement within the dressing room ahead of the encounter. "Everyone wants to play in a game like this one. We are very excited to be tackling one of Europe's best teams," he told Topmercato. "Bayern are having a great season, but we will try and get a good result away from home." The 28-year-old has warned of the formidable array of attacking talent at Bayern boss Jupp Heynckes' disposal, but believes the Bianconeri have the tactical awareness to nullify such a threat. He added: "They have some amazing players like [Franck] Ribery, [Arjen] Robben and [Thomas] Muller, but if we are prepared tactically, we can have our say. "I think it will be a great game."

UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE - Quarter Final - 2-4-2013 (8:45 p.m.) ................ BAYERN - JUVENTUS Allianz Arena - Munich Referee: Mark Clattenburg (England) Appiah backs Juventus to beat Bayern The former Bianconeri midfielder believes his old side will edge a cagey encounter over two legs, and revealed what runs through a player's mind prior to such a fxiture. Apr 2, 2013 EXCLUSIVE By Juliet Bawuah Former Ghana captain Stephen Appiah has tipped his old club Juventus to qualify to the semi-final of the Uefa Champions League at the expense of Bayern Munich, although he admits it will be a cagey encounter. The Old Lady will lock horns with the Bavarian side in the first-leg of their last eight clash at the Allianz Arena on Wednesday, and Appiah, who made 48 appearances for the Turin side, believes they will edge the tie over the two legs. “It’s going to be a difficult game, with two big clubs who are doing well, but I think each of them would use their home game as an advantage," Appiah told Goal.com. "I will go for Juventus to win 2-1, although Bayern are looking scary, but they are an odd team and I believe strongly that Juventus will go through over two legs.” Appiah, who made his Bianconeri debut in Europe's elite club competition, has stressed the importance of concentration for the players involved as they prepare to compete on one of football's grandest stages. “At this stage, if you are a player and you know there is a Champions League game ahead, nothing goes through your mind. All you do is lie on your bed and think about the pass that can make a difference in the game," he continued. "Players will be hoping to win at the same time, although they are scared, and it's true players will play with panic so it is the concentration that makes the difference."

UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE - Quarter Final - 2-4-2013 (8:45 p.m.) ................ BAYERN - JUVENTUS Allianz Arena - Munich Referee: Mark Clattenburg (England) Bayern play amazing champagne football, says Salihamidzic The Bosnian is impressed with the Allianz Arena side's recent performances, and hopes they can go all the way in Europe after narrowly missing out last season. Apr 2, 2013 Former Bayern Munich wing-back Hasan Salihamidzic has hailed the Bundesliga giants' recent form ahead of Tuesday's Champions League clash against Juventus. The Bavarians impressed at the weekend with a 9-2 league win over Hamburg, and Salihamidzic, who wore the Bayern jersey from 1998 until 2007, is hopeful they can go all the way in Europe this term. "The champagne football they are playing is amazing – they dominate matches and never give up possession. They simply stifle their opponents," Salihamidzic told Fifa.com. "Bayern have really matured and are now among the top three in Europe. They've qualified for the final of the Champions League twice in the past three years, only to lose on both occasions unfortunately. "Over the past three or four years they have become a really strong outfit. They never lose their cool and always remain focused. I really hope they do it this time."

UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE - Quarter Final - 2-4-2013 (8:45 p.m.) ................ BAYERN - JUVENTUS Allianz Arena - Munich Referee: Mark Clattenburg (England) Lahm: Bayern can unlock any defence The Germany international realises a difficult task awaits the Bundesliga leaders, but he is confident Bayern will find a way to beat the Juve back-line. Apr 2, 2013 Philipp Lahm believes Bayern Munich have what it takes to breakdown any defence as they prepare for the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final tie against Juventus on Tuesday. The Turin giants have impressed defensively this season, conceding only 19 goals in 30 Serie A appearances so far, yet Lahm has little doubt that Bayern, who put nine past Hamburg on Saturday, will find a way through against the Old Lady. "Juventus have impressed us. They have dominated Serie A and it will not be an easy task to beat them. They're a typical Italian team, very well organised and with some incredibly talented individuals," Lahm was quoted as saying by TZ. "But we all know what we're capable of, too. We know that we can unlock any defence. We have some great players and the win over Hamburg showed what we can do. "Juventus are a good team and they are very strong at the back. They are not an easy team to face, but we want to beat them."
