Second Half is underway...

Tudor out Pessotto in

[Dante]

Del Piero has made his first appearance in a month.

Trezeguet was replaced by Salas in the first half, looks like he may have picked up a knock.

Game's over, Juve loose 2-1 with a late minute equalizer...

Juve qualify for the quarter-finals

Thanks for the updates. I'd forgotten as well - how could I forget with that important game ESPN2 is showing today :rolleyes: Any loss is bad, but good to see ADP was back on the field.

HA HA you had to qualify on goal diffrence lol.

If their was any justice in this world Basle would be through to the quaters.

I hope Juve get stuffed in the next round they don't deserve to be there.

OH THANK GOD! On soccerage it was screwed up, and it put Depor over Juve in their standings, which I thought was impossible if Juve only lost by one. I came here to check, and am glad they made it! Congrats, Juve.

Well done to Juve for getting through... with the early goal the game was sealed so they probably just played out the time...

Makes no difference really. Never got any coverage downunder of this game either...

Good to hear Del Piero being back and look forward to seeing some good next phase action with DP in the lineup...
