Transcript
00:00The big match this week in Serie A, Juventus against Lazio at the Allianz Stadium, third
00:09versus fourth at the start of matchday eight and the possibility for both clubs to go level
00:13on points with league leaders Napoli, Douglas Luiz comes in looking to answer his critics
00:19and Kenan Yildiz is on the left, Francisco Conceicao suspended and there is also plenty
00:25of attacking options on the bench, Nuno Tavares will be a danger with five assists in five
00:31matches.
00:34The first of the two big clashes this weekend in Serie A, Juventus against Lazio at the
00:41Allianz Stadium.
00:47Douglas Luiz's corner to Ward, Federico Gatti who meets it but it's put wide, Castellanos
00:54first two, Zaccani alongside him, here is Zaccani into Tavares, Gatti read that one
01:01well and needed to, Cambiaso good tackle again, Castellanos, Tavares, Kendouzi arrives, side
01:14footed but side footed straight at Di Gregorio.
01:17Yeah but this tells you a lot about this Lazio, they are on form again with the ball back
01:24immediately and finding Tavares in a promising position, slow high ball in, they are outside
01:31the box and Kendouzi another player that had a fantastic start of the campaign.
01:39Flavic much better this, it's Kalulu who's through and that's a risky tackle by Romagnoli,
01:48everyone makes the appeal.
01:52Romagnoli probably didn't touch the ball at all that they are going to consider about
01:58his left or right leg on the Kalulu, this tells you one thing, this means one thing.
02:11That's what it seems to be, does Kalulu go to ground easily?
02:15I suppose that's almost irrelevant.
02:29The decision is a simple one after looking at the video evidence, Alessio Romagnoli makes
02:35contact with Pierre Kalulu and the Lazio centre back is sent off, Flavic looks set to take
02:44this one, Flavic, over the crossbar not by much, it's opened up now for Cambiaso, Tavares
03:05across quickly to try and close his man down, Locatelli's ball toward Flavic, can Juventus
03:14exploit this numerical advantage?
03:17Tavares' header, Cambiaso clever, good ball in, ball comes in, Taram heads away and the
03:34half-time whistle goes.
03:38First half that's been all about Alessio Romagnoli's dismissal, Tushin Vlaovic has been the
03:44most obvious threat for Juventus in attack, Tavares heavy touch straight to Vlaovic but
03:57he made up for it in part there, the former Arsenal man, here's Cambiaso, zips it into
04:07Taram, did it hit the hand?
04:10Vlaovic hits the crossbar.
04:15Here Killa touched the ball first with his thigh and here fantastic chance of Vlaovic
04:21who reacted well, again and almost inexplicably Juventus slow it down when they are in attacking
04:29positions.
04:30Yeah because this gives you the chance, gives Lazio the chance to reorganise them.
04:38That's a good ball by Taram, way out, Luiz, Luiz with the header that goes just wide of
04:47Provodel's post, that is good control by Douglas Luiz.
05:08Way up, that's a good looking ball, headed by Vlaovic but off target.
05:23Douglas Luiz, Nuno Tavares' header away.
05:34Cambiaso, Douglas Luiz not for the first time rising to meet the ball.
05:40Then you wait, you dig in, you wait, you wait, you don't have to concede one chance, especially
05:47last couple of minutes when you think that you're going to do it.
05:56Way up, heads back to Cambiaso.
06:01Fangioli, Danilo, Danilo himself trying to wave his teammates forwards.
06:13Way up.
06:18Vlaovic, palmed away by Provodel.
06:23That might be Provodel's first save of the match in the 81st minute.
06:28Cabal now, Douglas Luiz, Fangioli, twisting, turning.
06:36Kalulu, bodies in the middle for Juventus, it's way up.
06:41Cambiaso, scoops it in, Provodel with the punch.
06:47What a story it would be for him on his Serie A debut to score.
06:52Kalulu, Douglas Luiz, here is Adzic.
06:57Blocked, Fangioli.
07:01Punched away by Provodel.
07:03Cambiaso.
07:08Mildes.
07:12Is this the moment for Juventus?
07:16Put across and it's turned in.
07:21It looks like it might have gone in off Patrick or Mario Ghila.
07:27Tiago Mota celebrates as do Juventus.
07:33It's been attritional from the Bianconeri and it is off Mario Ghila.
07:43Simon, you can have a wonderful game, but one single mistake can cause your team a result.
07:53Mario Ghila, who's been excellent throughout the game,
07:57but the pressure finally made Lazio crack.
08:02Douglas Luiz, that's a good ball into way up.
08:07Did he catch Mario Ghila?
08:09We play on for now.
08:11Headed away by Maricic.
08:14Douglas Luiz, tidy turn.
08:17Adzic.
08:19Provodel.
08:21With another save.
08:31Juventus move, joint top of the Serie A standings after a very hard-fought game against Lazio.
