Can anyone recap the game for me after? How did Juve play? Was it a good game?

Livid that I missed it :o
Was a very good end to end game. Juve played well, if Inter had a better player than Lukaku they may have won.

Been pretty even imo.

Lukaku might need a security escort out of the stadium. Really getting it from the Inter fans now.

Good goalkeeping there, nearly 2-2.

Ronaldo been unlucky not to get on the scoresheet tonight.
He's been pretty unlucky all season tbh. Hit the post a bunch of times, keepers have been pulling off great saves, small margin offsides taking goals away...

He looks fitter than he's been in years and Sarri's football clearly favours him a lot more than Allegri's.

Are my eyes playing tricks or do I see Conte wearing an Apple Watch on his left arm and another watch on his right?

First half was intense, both teams were playing good end to end stuff, then Sensi got injured and Inter went off the boil. Pjanic played a good ball to Dybala who scored, De Ligt handled the ball and Lautaro equalised. Second half was relatively chill, Juve switched around with formations, played good football and Higuain scored the second. Inter have had a few chances to score but they couldn't take advantage.
Oh, and Lukaku has been Lukaku.

Was very unlucky not score winner against Atletico late on, similar to the shot off the bar tonight. Both would have been great goals.

Thanks :lol:

Seems like he's being found out by the Inter players.
He's not having one of his best games.

Conte was livid with one pass about 10-15 mins ago when there was Inter player down on the left wing absolutely free and he passed to him about 10 yards behind him. :lol:

We got robbed paying £80m for Lukaku, somehow we managed to rob Inter of £70m

Wouldn't be surprised if the players stopped passing to Lukaku in future games. The outcome is fairly predictable every time they try to pass to him.

Statement win by Juve. Those 15 minutes at the start of the second half were scary good, we've seen flashes of what Sarri wants but they still aren't able to keep it up for a whole game.

I think Inter might crumble after this, their first eleven is great but that squad isn't deep enough.

Inter are a pretty good team made up of mostly just good players exalted by a great coach. And it shows unfortunately

Juventus on the other hand are a team of world class players, exalted by a great coach but only in flashes as of yet. Still those flashes are terrifying

Juve do look a scary prospect at times, if they can fully come to grips with Sarri's system they will be an absolute force.

Good game though, Inter aren't as far away as I think.
They are. Juventus just haven't hit the high gears with Sarri yet. This game was even when juventus slowed down, and men vs kids when they pushed

Great match. Horrific performance from Lukaku. Brozovic was great.
Yeah brozovic was excellent tonight, made some excellent around the corner passes when in trouble, latauro is a great find too...

With lukaku we've sold him but my frustration with him tonight was even worse than the usual United game with him in the team!

This league is getting worse every year. Atalanta lost to Shakhtar at home and Inter can't buy a win in UCL.

Inter showed more than I thought they would. I thought Juve would win easily. Also that Bonucci-De Ligt partnership needs alot of work.
