Friday, 24 October 2008

Juventus and Inter Milan both scored crucial wins in the UEFA Champions League but Roma and Fiorentina suffered defeat. The highlight of Match Day 3 was Alex Del Piero's wonder-goal against Real Madrid.

 

An Alessandro Del Piero stunner and Amauri header brought Juventus back to life by defeating Real Madrid 2-1!

 

Amauri flicked the Claudio Marchisio ball back for Del Piero's first-touch powerful right-foot strike from 25 yards for Juve's first goal. The power of the snapshot stunned Iker Casillas, who was rooted to the spot.

 

Straight after the restart, Amauri doubled Juve's advantage in Turin. Nedved intercepted a weak pass down the left channel and crossed to the six-yard box for Amauri's header, which took a deflection off Heinze to leave Casillas stranded.

 

Real Madrid's goal came when a cross from the left found Ruud Van Nistelrooy's header into the ground. He was left far too much space for a totally free header from six yards.

 

Juventus: Manninger; Grygera, Legrottaglie (Mellberg 46), Chiellini, Molinaro; Marchionni, Sissoko, Marchisio (Salihamidzic 37), Nedved; Amauri (Iaquinta 78), Del Piero

Real Madrid: Casillas; Sergio Ramos, Pepe, Cannavaro, Heinze; Van Der Vaart (Drenthe 76), Gago, Sneijder; Raul, Van Nistelrooy, Higuain (Robben 54)

Roma clung on until the 77th minute before capitulating to John Terry's header at Stamford Bridge, but the good news is Francesco Totti played 90 minutes.

 

Chelsea: Cech; Bosingwa, Terry, Carvalho, Bridge; Kalou (Di Santo 77), Deco, Mikel Obi, Lampard, Malouda (Belletti 46); Anelka (Ferreira 91)

Bayern Munich pounced on two defensive errors to beat Fiorentina 3-0, although Adrian Mutu and Alberto Gilardino rue missed chances.

 

Klose, Schweinsteiger and Ze Roberto scored for Luca Toni's Bayern Munich. 

 

Bayern Munich: Rensing; Oddo, Lucio, Demichelis, Lahm (Lell 46); Schweinsteiger (Borowski 65), Van Bommel, Ze Roberto, Ribery; Toni (Podolski 57), Klose

Fiorentina: Frey; Zauri, Dainelli, Gamberini, Vargas (Gobbi 74); Kuzmanovic, Felipe Melo, Montolivo; Santana (Jovetic 65), Gilardino, Mutu
