Now, now - let's not forget Jan scything down Douglas Costa at Wembley and miraculously getting away with it.
Fuck Juve. They've always been cheats, they probably always will be cheats. They're like the Mafia, it's in their DNA to manipulate and intimidate to gain all the advantages possible.

Unbelievable, Napoli down to ten men after a few minutes, a goal down after 34. One step forwards, two back.

Bottled it

Nah. Napoli showed immense bottle to go to Juve and win, when the heat was on. Again, as with this stupid bottle narrative with us, it's more about football, economics and the rub, than anything mystical or psychological. Juve are a much richer club with a better squad, Napoli just don't have the squad depth Juve do, it's a miracle they've pushed them this close.

And today they get a player sent off after 8 minutes. Juve had a man advantage, and were shocking against Inter, but found two goals in two minutes to turn a terrible performance into a win.

Another heads up for a match on TV....Pirlo has a testimonial which is on Sky sports tomorrow night.

Andrea Pirlo has revealed that Francesco Totti, Gianluigi Buffon, Fabio Cannavaro, Alessandro Del Piero, Paolo Maldini and Frank Lampard will form part of his star-studded testimonial at the San Siro.

The World Cup winner announced in February that he would be taking to the field in Milan one last time before hanging up his boots.

Big game in Italy tonight, Lazio and Inter going head to head to claim a CL spot. Inter need to score win and score, I think, 3 in order to get it. Should be a good watch. 7.45 on BT sports 1 for those interested.

Edit: actually I think Inter just need to win in order to qualify. So even more excitement.

Thanks, I might watch that. Thinking about it do we need a separate thread for recommending games on TV?

Yes you should watch it, will be good, lots of talent on show. Watch out for Cancelo, he would be my choice for right back. And obviously Savic. And yes, I agree, that would be a good idea (recommendation thread).

Anderson just sprinted all that distance and made that look so easy.
