Barcelona could take control of the match. But Lionel Messi and Antoine Griezmann missed out on the opportunity. Even in the second half, their opportunity-wasting exercise continued. Even then, they did not have much trouble finding themselves and winning against Juventus. After Usman Dembele's lucky goal, Ronald Koman's team came back with a full three points in the captain's last goal. Barcelona beat Juventus 2-0 in Group G of the Champions League at the Allianz Stadium last night. This is their second win in a row.
Juventus had to play without Cristiano Ronaldo at home. However, the team could not take advantage without the best star of the team. They lost to Barcelona. Although fate did not accompany them. The team did not see the goal even after wrapping the ball in the net three times.
In the end, Barcelona dominated the attack as well as the possession against Juventus, which became a team of 10 people. However, the star-studded team has suffered a lot in the finishing. Last week, Barcelona started the journey on the best stage of Europe by beating Ferensvaros 5-1, but the time was not going well for Barcelona. La Liga has not seen a win in the last three matches, a loss in the last two. Four days ago, they lost to arch-rivals Real Madrid at home. Outside the field, President Josep Maria Bartomeu stepped down. All in all, Barcelona is having a turbulent time. In such a situation, this victory is definitely a great relief for the Catalan camp.
Coach Coman is also fascinated. In his eyes, this is Messi's best game so far this season. The Dutchman doesn't want to think about what happened off the field, "It's a big win against one of the strongest teams in Europe and we've been able to play the kind of football we're trying to play today. I think we need to focus on the field game. It doesn’t affect us and doesn’t make me think. We are only looking at football. 'Barcelona will play their next match in La Liga tomorrow at Alaves. Three days later, their opponent at home in the Champions League is Dynamo Kiev of Ukraine.
On the other hand, there was no edge in the attack of the hosts without Ronaldo. They could not aim a single shot in the match!
At this rate the problem of Juventus became more concentrated. They have lost three of their five Serie A matches. Although Dynamo lost to Kiev and started well in the Champions League, their performance in that match was not good either. Barcelona is at the top with 6 points in two consecutive wins. Juventus with 3 points. In the other match of the group, Kiev drew 2-2 at Ferensvaros. The two teams equal 1 points.
Andrea Pirlo is also finding positive aspects at home at such a rate. For Juventus coaches, the Champions League group stage rate is a big lesson for them, ‘This rate will help us grow. It was a tough match, against a team who knew how to play and they were far ahead of us. We are a reformed team, many of whose players only played in the second Champions League. "
Juventus will play their next match in the league the day after tomorrow against Spetsia Kalcho. Three days later, Pirlo's opponent in the Champions League is Ferensvaros.
