Juventus made a surprise Tuesday night before his tifosi in the semi-finals of the Champions League. Juve did better than hold his own at Real Madrid, the defending champion, since they have managed to win (2-1) to consider returning to Santiago Bernabéu with some hopes.
The clash of styles expected did not take place … Tuesday evening at the Juventus Stadium, is expected to see the Bianconeri play on their compact defensive block when receiving Real Madrid Cristiano Ronaldo, a regular training to blow up opposing defenses in Spain and across Europe. Finally, the semi-final of the Champions League saw a Turin training to at least play with the defending champions to successfully win (2-1).
Carlo Ancelotti hoped But surprise his counterpart Massimiliano Allegri with a 4-4-2 leaving more freedom to Gareth Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo at the forefront. The two stars, supported by James Rodriguez and Isco were to hurt the experienced defending Italian champions recently crowned a fourth Scudetto. But from the first moment, the expected scenario does not take the expected turn. Claudio Marchisio and its partners are ambitious show in the game, especially in the battle quickly dominating the midfield.
Side Merengues, if there is effective recovery, Sergio Ramos has shown its limits distribution, missing several passes during the game, while Pepe and Raphael Varane were responsible for keeping the central hinge. The French is also surprised by the call from Carlos Tevez early in the game, and indirectly involved in the opening goal Alvaro Morata signed (1-0, 8), with the help of Marcelo and Toni Kroos. The Spaniards are not the best and can react only in spurts.
On a beautiful inspiration of James Rodriguez and Dani Carvajal, Cristiano Ronaldo equalized head (1-1, 27th). It is the tree that hides the forest, both defensive shortcomings are glaring in the ranks of European champions. And that still characterizes the second half. Following a region hit by Marcelo Madrid striker against the Bianconeri starts and ends with a penalty obtained and transformed by Carlos Tevez (2-1, 58th). James Rodriguez header off the crossbar late in the first period (41) could change everything, but just as the final opportunity offered to Fernando Llorente (90 + 2).
Juve has succeeded and has the right to dream of a final qualification of the Champions League, as long as you negotiate the return to Santiago Bernabéu on 13 May, a match that could mark the return to competition of Paul Pogba, still injured. Carlo Ancelotti’s men have them a rematch to their supporters after being dominated by better than them on Tuesday. But the task will not be so easy, as if the Old Lady can leave out the Serie A, this is not the case of the White House, launched in the title race and will receive the Valencia CF four days Earlier in La Liga.
