My Wife and I had a great time at the soccer match last Sunday as Juventus FC came into the friendly confines of Red Bull Arena with 18,735 in attendance. We sat in Section 132 and were serenaded by the Red Bull Supporters to our left and Juventus supporters to our right at midfield. At times the Juventus supporters were loud but didn’t have a lot to cheer for in the 2nd half. The Red Bulls started their subs once again and they played with energy from the opening kickoff. Red Bulls Irving Garcia, Conor Chinn, Tony Tchani and Sinisa Ubiparipovic were all terrific. Juventus controlled the play early in the match with great passing and ball control. Late in the first half Juventus Captain Alessandro Del Piero ripped a shot off the crossbar that deflected right for their best scoring chance in the 1st half. The score remained scoreless 0-0 at halftime. To begin the 2nd half Roy Miller was subbed in for Borman. In the 50th minute Garcia was fed the ball to the right of the goal outside the box. He took a rocket of a shot that hit the crossbar and Jeremy Hall followed it up and scored. Red Bulls took lead 1-0. In the 55th minute Miller fed a very nice through ball to Chinn who settled the ball and scored. Red Bulls led 2-0. Juventus then took out two of their top stars Diego and Del Piero. A few minutes later Juan Pablo Angel, Dane Richards and Seth Stammler were subbed into the game. In the 75th minute Richards streaked down the right side with the ball and crossed it to Angel who put it into the net. Red Bulls took a commanding 3-0 lead. Albright was subbed very late into the match. Unfortunately Juventus scored in the 90th minute, with about 10 seconds of regulation to go! I saw trouble in the box where the Red Bulls could not gain possession. Juventus’ Amauri held the ball, spun around 180 degrees and scored. That play reminded me of a hockey spin-o-rama. All in all we saw a great effort and match, and the rain held as well. I took the picture of Diego taking the corner kick in front of us.Tuesday, May 25, 2010
