GENOA VS JUVE 3 - 2

Claudio Ranieri make a horror tragedy in Genoa stadium and I think Ranieri is lack of winning mentality.



Genoa : Rubinho, Ferrari, Boccheti, Biava, Motta, Juric, Mesto (Rossi 43'), Mesto, Jankovic (Oliveira 80'), Palladino, Sculli (Papastathopoulo 79').

Juventus : Buffon, Chiellini, Legrottaglie (Marchionni 74'), Molinaro, Zebina (Grygera 74'), Poulsen, Marchisio, Nedved, Camoranesi, Del Piero, Iaquinta. ( din / din )


GENOA

Rubinho: 6.0- He had no chance on either goal as Del Piero beat him from the penalty spot while Iaquinta expertly chipped the ball over him.

Biava: 6.0- His wayward pass directly led to Del Piero’s penalty but he atoned for his mistake by clearing Nedved's shot off the line in the 57th minute.

Ferrari: 6.0- He was extremely unlucky to concede a penalty as it looked as he got the whole ball on his sliding tackle.

Bocchetti: 6.0- His solid performances have earned him a call-up to La Nazionale but will be disappointed he let Iaquinta sneak behind him for Juve's second goal of the game.

Mesto: 7.0- It was his powerful run that set up his team’s first goal of the match and he was enjoying a great game before Nedved’s elbow prematurely ended his evening.

Juric: 6.5- The tough-tackling Croatian midfielder battled Poulsen and Marchiso all night long and came out on top more often than not.

Motta: 8.0- The Brazilian midfielder took the bull by its horns with a first-half brace and cut an inspiring figure on the pitch tonight.

Criscito: 6.5- He looked calm and composed on the left hand side and will be very proud of his performance this evening.

Sculli: 7.0- The Calabrese hitman is enjoying one of his best season in the Serie A but missed a golden opportunity in the 68th minute and then was absolutely robbed by Buffon just moments later.

Jankovic: 7.0- The Serbian striker showed off his vast arsenal of tricks and flicks and was unlucky not to have found the back of the net with a well placed header in the 72nd minute.

Palladino: 7.5- Almost opened the scoring in the 6th minute as he beat Buffon but his shot was cleared off the line by Legrottaglie. He was a real nuisance all evening long and fully deserved a goal.

SUBS: Rossi (42”) 7.5, Papastathopolous (79") 6.0, Olivera (79") 7.0

JUVENTUS

Buffon: 6.0- He has not looked like the same goalkeeper as he did before his injury and, dare one say it, Juve may want to sell him while his stock is still fairly high.

Zebina: 5.0- The temperamental Frenchman was a liability at the back tonight and he was completely to blame for Motta's second goal just before the half-time whistle.

Legrottaglie: 6.0- The Juve defence have been leaking goals in his absence and he saved a sure goal in the 6th minute but could not stop the Genoa onslaught.

Chiellini: 6.0- He is the first name on Ranieri’s lineup card for every match but he was not his usual indestructible self this evening

Molinaro: 5.0- The much-maligned full-back seemed to hurt his back in the first half and then his neck in the second and never really looked comfortable after that.

Camoranesi: 4.0- The usual architect of the Juve attack was out of sorts tonight and did his team no favours when he was sent his marching orders for a nasty tackle on Sculli.

Marchisio: 6.0- The midfield prospect was anonymous for large portions of the match and picked up a yellow card that means he will miss the Derby d'Italia next week.

Poulsen: 6.0- The former Valencia hardman gave away possession far too often and will give the Bianconeri fans who think he does not deserve to wear the Juve shirt that much more ammunition.

Nedved: 7.5- The Czech legend was fortunate the referee did not spot his elbow which split Mesto’s head open in the first half. He played like a man possessed in the second 45 minutes and was unlucky not to score in the 47th minute

Del Piero: 7.0- Won his side a penalty and then coolly slotted the ball past Rubinho but will be disappointed that Juve did not make up any ground on Inter today.

Iaquinta: 7.0- He continued his red-hot form with a delicate chip over Rubinho that looked like it was enough to salvage the draw.
