Amazing game for Juve, battled hard without Nedved especially, and beat out a giant of a team. Best defense in the world if you ask me, and a fantastic display for Trezegol coming off the bench.
What's your take on it?

Unfortunately I was stuck in a pub watching the liverpool, then arsenal game.
but from what I saw of extra time juve looked the best team by far.
Come on the buffon - my favourite player ever.

I think Chelsea could give them a run for their money for best defence in the world. Only conceded 9 in the league so far, compared to Juves 16. But of course Juve have done better defence wise in Champions league, although Chelseas 2 goals conceded at Porto dont count really cos it was reserve team....anyway
Wanted Real to win! Think wed (liverpool) have a better chance against them than Juve.. prob favourites now for me.. Love to see them play Chelsea next round!

Plastick UEFA scheduled Milan and Inter matches on the same day and they were both away for the first leg so they had to be home on the same day for the second leg? Not possible so Inter moved to next week.
Stupid UEFA

It's something i can't understand about Juve... Looking at the (bigger part of) their matches their defence seems fragile and unsure. Atleast to me. (this match being one of the exceptions.) But the other team has in general this tendency to not score goals. In some way Juve make the other teams play worse, but I do not understand how. Maybe it's only the bigger part of the teams in serie A having mental blocks for beating Juve, what do I know...
Think they played rather well this match anyway. A lot better than normal in any way. I just wish that Zlatan could actually do something useful with the ball after all those beatiful controls. Like making up his mind a bit quicker, without contemplating the alternatives for a few seconds before doing anything every time he recieves the ball.
The best thing was anyway to see Stadio delle alpi LIVING for once. Hope some of the 60 000 enjoyed the game and come back some more time to fill up the stadium. Well worth the 60 Euro i payed for the ticket. Especially when my friends dad insisted on paying it for me.

60 € a ticket. thats scandelous. I payed a mere 10€ for entry to the san siro when I was over with celtic. Right down the front of the bottom teer I was too.

Are you freakin' kidding me? Two years ago, he punished Barca in a similar style in et in the quarters. He may be a little low-profile, but NEVER underestimate the modest Uruguyan.
