Vastus teemale \'Torino Juventus\'
Juventus and Roma met at Pescara’s ‘Adriatico’ for a friendly match that was emotional from the very beginning: after just one minute Nedved attempted on goal from outside the box, but the aim was too high; a little later, Totti answered back with a free kick slightly out of goal. The Bianconeri seemed to be more determined, controlling the game and taking the lead after 20 minutes: Vieira grabbed a precious ball in the midfield, drove down to the edge of the box and served Del Piero; Alex did not think twice and shot a precise right footed kick that beated Curci. Roma reacted and on 26’ minutes Mancini, served into the box by Totti, attempted on goal but missed it and two minutes later De Rossi’s header, too, past the the post. On 34’ minutes, it’s the draw: Totti drove a tricky free kick into the box which Chivu deflected right onto goal. On 41’ minutes, Roma got close to taking the lead when Aquilani, assisted by Nonda, hit the crossbar.
During the break, Capello substituted Buffon with Chimenti while, as for Roma, Cassano took the place of Nonda. And it was the very Bari-born talent who attempted on goal after 2 minutes into the second half, but the ball flew high over the cross bar. On 10’ minutes, Juventus replaced four players: Kovac, Giannichedda, Mutu and Zalayeta in place of Thuram, Emerson, Olivera and Ibrahimovic. The trident attack showed up again but Roma defended well leaving little room to their opponents. On 18’ minutes, Nedved tried to aim at goal from outside the box but the shot was past the post, while on 21’ minutes Curci cleared Mutu’s free kick. On 36’ minutes Totti found the goal: the Giallorossi captain drove down the right flank, served Taddei who beated Chimenti from the edge of the box. Juventus raised the pressure to reach the draw and on 45’ minutes Del Piero sprang out from a ruck and, in the box, got into contact with Curci. A penalty followed and it was the very captain who converted it for the definitive 2-2.
