Zenit St. Petersburg- Juventus
By: alessio | November 25th, 2008
Zenit St Petersburg’s Champions League match at home to Juventus is in doubt after a car exploded in the city during rush hour on Tuesday morning. The blast is thought to have been caused by a grenade and early reports suggest three people, including a young child, have been killed. The vehicle was just 50 meters from the entrance to Udeleyaya underground station, near Zenit’s training ground, leading to fears the device may have been intended to be detonated on the metro system.
The Russian Minister for National Emergencies immediately increased security and it is now believed the government may ask UEFA to postpone the tie, which is due to take place at the Petrovsky Stadium at 8:30pm local time (5:30pm GMT).
Italian news and Uefa think the game will still be played, but the Russian government has the final say on it. More news as it comes.
Take a guess which one of these is Giovinco.

John you must be looney, as you Brits would say!
That game had too many chances to end up goalless. Good games had by most of our players. Sissoko, while being a monster defensively, is so frustrating going forward; totally ruined a chance at the end with his poor touches. But I give him props for getting himself suspended for the next match; now he’ll have a clean slate for the knockout round starting in February.
HBW, I seriously doubt that Ranieri is thinking of giving those players the start against Reggina. Reggina has been doing really well of late and will not be taken lightly. And hey, if he couldn’t play them against Chievo why would he play them against a better Reggina team.
It seems almost inevitable that Giovinco will go out on loan in January…

Alessio and all Juve supporters – congratulations on a superb match. Absolutely brilliant tactically and it ended in a deserved draw.

Wow, Seba is still in team… fuckin’ lately!
So, rival teams are very lucky because our manager is… some kind of a “no-sub-man” One half for Giovinco and De Ceglie foĐş Alex and Pavel? could it be worse? no!that was a good game really, with chances and good defensive play, but Pavel… he needs to be rested, he’s not gettin’ any younger. Marchisio is still a beast, Momo is still very useful, let’s hope for the further success.

man ranieri really needs to rest guys like Del Piero and Nedved more, these guys are old and can’t play every game, save them for the more important ones. Giovinco and De Ceglie should have started. Laugh at Sissoko getting himself the yellow on purpose.

zenit was poor, juve were resilient as ever and VERY fast on the counter-attack. with this defense, it’s no wonder buffon is considered the best keeper in the world.

ranieri wont win anything i feel but he has pulled things around to be fair. i hear juve are linked to gaetano d’agostino and zaccardo i think gaetano would be perfect for you in the middle. pair him with marchisio and that would be a world class centro momo just isnt good enough. yes he can tackle but its 2008 you cant have a 1 dimensional footballer! marchisio has it all he can be world class centrocampista his tackling, passing, shooting and technique is all better than sissokos

i have one fear and one fear alone thinking of wut alex just said…what if ranieri is like ancelotti was for us? – just a mediocre coach who cant win… he couldnt win in chelsea…i dont think he has that power but i might have to grow a pair and demand star calibre reinforcements to stand strong and push the team for la tricolore or la orejona (champions league).

I wonder the same, Daniel. I think he’s a good coach, but time will tell. In any event, I really doubt there’s any chance of him being sacked mid-season. Juventus doesn’t do that in general and it doesn’t usually yield good long-term results.

my biggest critiscm of ranieri is giovinco. its a disgrace that he signed a new contract and now they are never playing him. he should be playing at least 45 mins a game these years are crucial for him and he should be playing regularly. loan him so he is playing every game. its such a shame because he is italias answer to messi and yet again ranieri is fucking something up
