“A crazy Juve, worthy of its golden times, has signed a feat in Germany that honors it in Europe.” Thus begins the fund of Xavier Jacobelli on the Corriere dello Sportto talk about the success achieved last night by the Bianconeri 2-3 in Germany against Leipzig. “Twice the giant Sesko honors the Red Bull company name and gives wings to the Germans, but twice and the second time in numerical inferiority, the Bianconeri catch up with their opponents and electrocute them with the flash of Conceiçao”.

Vlahovic stands out, scoring a brace: “To send his superficial and lazy critics into hiding.” But not just the Serbian: “The success is made extraordinary by his value and the horizons of glory opened up to the Bianconeri, in a contingency that many other teams would have crushed. Ready, go and in ten minutes Motta loses first Bremer then Nico Gonzales. So , must review his plans, inserts Gatti and Conceiçao while keeping the team always ahead, always ready to repel German attacks, reversing the front of the challenge.”

It all seemed over after Sesko’s penalty: “And it is precisely here that Juve gets excited. Just when Di Gregorio is sent off, Perin enters and Douglas Luiz also enters and is definitely going through an unlucky period: more outside than inside the starting team, at first ball touched due to the penalty converted by Sesko. Vlahovic scores the 2-2 with his new marvel, Leipzig doesn’t give up, Perin never makes a mistake and in the 99th minute he saves the last goal from the Tori Rossi Kalulu twice and once; third Cambiaso avoid collapse during the final assault of the Germans, Fagioli gets excited”. In closing: “A memorable feat, a football novel, the epiphany of a great European team. In the end, Juve gave them wings. If they continue to play like this, they will fly very high.”
