Juventus defeats Sampdoria 1-0 thanks to a great goal by Pavel Nedved realised at the 23’ of the second half. 10 are still the points of advantage on Milan (that won against Empoli 3-0 this afternoon) one week away from next Sunday’s big match.
Very struggled match from the very beginning. Fast pace, but few goal occasions in the first half. To be remarked, a precise action by Cannavaro after Pisano’s incursion at the 2’. The first shot was made by Juventus at the 15’: Nedved’s right-kick from 25 meters is deviated by Antonioli above the goal’s cross bar. Juventus carries on trying to be dangerous. A cross by Mutu at the 24’ is repulsed by the goalkeeper. At the 30’ Sampdoria goes very close to being in advantage thanks to Volpi’s penalty kick, but he hits the crossing of the goalposts. Juventus replicates with a shot by Emerson that finishes on the end line. Close to the end of the first half (44’) Del Piero passes to Nedved but his left-kick terminates on the side.
The second half starts with the teams unchanged. Also in the second half the pace is fast. At the 4’ Flachi puts the ball in the middle, Buffon comes out and is able to anticipate Kutuzov. Two minutes later, the ball gets in the middle of the penalty area after a kick by Mutu. In the group, Vieira is not able to hit the ball, then the defence clears it in the corner arc.
On the developments of the corner-kick, a nice pass from Vieira to Del Piero, who tries a left-kick between two opponents, but that is then blocked by the goalkeeper The pressure of Capello’s team increases with the passing of the minutes and, after Nedved’s penalty kick that finishes high (18’), here it comes the advantage goal: penalty kick by Mutu, great header by Nedved terminating in the goal (23’). Once in advantage, Juventus tries to double the score. At the 27’ after Mutu’s cross, nice header made by Vieira that ends on the side. At the 33’ a penalty kick by Del Piero finishes high. In the mean time Capello had replaced Zalayeta with Camoranesi and Sampdoria Pisano with Colombo.
Then Thuram gets on the pitch substituting injured Kovac and on the other side Gasbarroni takes Diana’s place. Juventus manages the advantage with great attention and tries some other offensive manoeuvres. Almost in the overtime Giannichedda substitutes Emerson and Novellino sends Sala on the pitch replacing Falcone. One minute before the end Thuram makes a precious defensive action that closes all hostilities. Juventus takes home three precious points.
