Venticinquesima puntata della settima stagione di J-TACTICS, la rubrica di radiomegliodiniente.com, dedicata alla vecchia signora bianconera.Focus sulla delicata sfida, dopo le disastrose debacle delle due precedenti partite, andata in scena all'Allianz Stadium, Juventus-Genoa.Nella prima di Igor Tudor, da allenatore la vecchia signora rialza la testa.I bianconeri battono il Genoa 1-0 e ritornano in corsa per il quarto posto Champions, con tre preziosissimi punti.Mattatore il giovane e redivivo Yildiz con un gol spettacolare nel primo tempo.Vlahovic subito titolare, ma ancora impreciso e balbettante nonostante la buona volontà di mettersi in mostra difronte al tecnico croato, suo grande estimatore, mentre Koopmeiners è ancora in difficoltà e fischiato dal pubblico bianconero al momento della sostituzione.L'ex PSG Kolo Muani resta in panchina per tutta la partita.Nico Gonzalez e McKennie schierati da esterni a tutta fascia.Queste le principali natività tattiche del neo allenatore bianconero.I bianconeri giocano con maggiore intensità rispetto al recente passato ed in modo veloce, senza palleggio prolungato.È un po' questo il primo marchio di fabbrica di Tudor alla Juventus.Maggiore intensità che ha prodotto i suoi frutti soprattutto nella seconda parte della prima frazione quando la Juventus ha trovato il gol del vantaggio proprio grazie a Yildiz.Tudor è intenso e presente quanto la sua squadra, fa quasi da dodicesimo uomo in campo.Vlahovic impreciso, perde un contrasto vicino alla panchina della Juve, la palla finisce tra le braccia del tecnico croato che lesto approfitta del posizionamento errato della difesa del Genoa, serve la palla con le mani a Koopmeiners.La rimessa laterale dell'olandese finisce a Yildiz che con una serpentina consente ai bianconeri di chiudere in vantaggio meritatamente il primo tempo.Gatti non ce la fa, sostituito con Kalulu al '27.Nella ripresa il Genoa si rende pericoloso Pinamonti ci prova in girata in area di rigore impegnando Di Gregorio.La Juventus continua ad attaccare sempre con Yildiz, proattivo e pericoloso.Vieira mischia le carte e manda in campo anche Ekuban e Malinovskyi.La Juventus sostituisce Nico Gonzalez per Weah e Koopmeiners per Conceicao.La stanchezza si fa sentire, soprattutto per i padroni di casa, palesemente in debito d'ossigeno, che cercano di gestire la gara, i tre punti sarebbero preziosissimi in ottica quarto posto.Nel finale succede praticamente nulla e la Juventus conquista una sudata e meritata vittoria che la rilancia nella corsa ad un piazzamento Champions, ad un solo punto di distacco dal Bologna.Di questo e altro parleremo in questa puntata!Diteci la vostra!Ecco i link dei nostri social:CANALE TELEGRAM:https://t.me/+TYOn7FZAQwet7MAtINSTAGRAM:https://instagram.com/jtactics_?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=TWITTER:https://twitter.com/RadioMDN?t=woKQltSFRUTw9qibbRZaJA&s=09

Ventitreesima puntata della settima stagione di J-TACTICS, la rubrica di radiomegliodiniente.com, dedicata alla vecchia signora bianconera.Focus sulla sfida che valeva il 3° posto in classifica, Juventus-Atalanta vale un posto sul podio nella classifica di Serie A.La vecchia signora bianconera subisce una sconfitta epica, subendo 4 gol a zero in casa come non accadeva dal lontano '67, in un derby della Mole ed è fuori non solo dal podio ma anche (forse per i più ottimisti) da un'ipotetica lotta scudetto.L'Atalanta a Torino si è imposta per 4-0.Un successo clamoroso, su tutta la linea da parte della squadra di Gasperini che ha dominato in lungo e in largo allo Stadium fagocitando una inerme Juventus.Gol di Retegui, Zappacosta, de Roon e Lookman.L'Atalanta sin da subito dà l'idea di poter fare malissimo.Gli spazi sono praterie e Lookman corre come un cavallo purosangue.Gli orobici passano in vantaggio al 27′ su calcio di rigore.Il mani di McKennie è netto, anche se qualche discussione in merito potrebbe sorgere dato che il giocatore americano viene nell'atto di saltare, palesemente sbilanciato in modo tale da dover necessariamente allargare il braccio in modo anomalo.Il VAR conferma il penalty.Dal dischetto si presenta Mateo Retegui che non sbaglia, 1-0 e gol numero 22 in campionato.La Juve è in narcolessi, l'Atalanta continua a fare la partita e nel recupero ha due occasioni in una. Lookman è sfortunato, centra il palo, poi batte a botta sicura e si trova di fronte un Di Gregorio strepitoso.All'intervallo piovono fischi per i bianconeri.Nella Juventus Koopmeiners prende il posto di Yildiz.La ripresa comincia e subito raddoppia l'Atalanta.Lookman viene imbeccato, avanza e calcia, Di Gregorgio respinge, arriva de Roon e insacca il 2-0.Motta prova a dare una scossa, manda in campo Mbangula, Alberto Costa e Kalulu.L'Atalanta accelera e chiude i giochi dopo il 60 esimo quando Zappacosta riceve da Kolasinac e insacca, 3-0.Poi tocca Vlahovic completare il disastro dando il là a una ripartenza dell'Atalanta, quella che porta al 4-0 di Lookman.Partita finita, umiliazione totale per la Juve, che nell'era moderna non aveva mai perso in modo così secco in casa in Serie A.Thiago Motta, o chi per lui, ora deve difendere il quarto posto, ultimo obiettivo rimasto ai bianconeri.Di questo e altro parleremo in questa puntata!Diteci la vostra!Ecco i link dei nostri social:CANALE TELEGRAM:https://t.me/+TYOn7FZAQwet7MAtINSTAGRAM:https://instagram.com/jtactics_?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=TWITTER:https://twitter.com/RadioMDN?t=woKQltSFRUTw9qibbRZaJA&s=09

Ventiduesima puntata della settima stagione di J-TACTICS, la rubrica di radiomegliodiniente.com, dedicata alla vecchia signora bianconera.Focus sulla sfida che valeva il 4° posto in classifica e una sorta di rivincita dopo le feroci critiche subite dopo la rovinosa e inaspettata sconfitta in coppa Italia.La vecchia signora si rialza battendo il Verona, Thuram e Koopmeiners portano la squadra di Motta a -6 dall'Inter.La Juventus batte il Verona 2-0 nel silenzio dello Stadium.I bianconeri si prendono tre punti d'oro e ritrovano una parvenza di normalità dopo la bufera per la partita con l'Empoli.Gli scaligeri nel primo tempo avevano anche trovato il vantaggio con un siluro da fuori area di Suslov, fortunatamente per i padroni di casa la rete viene annullata per fuorigioco.Stessa cosa per la squadra di Thiago Motta che si è vista annullare il vantaggio con McKennie ma in precedenza c'era stata carica di Kelly su Montipò.Montipò contro tutti, potremmo dire.Può essere questo il titolo che descrive la prima frazione di gioco, che ha visto il portiere degli scaligeri esibirsi in una lunga serie di parate.Prima su Locatelli, poi ancora sul capitano della Juventus e ancora sui vari Yildiz, McKennie e Thuram quest'ultimo si vede respingere una sorta di rigore in movimento dopo un'ottima azione costruita dalla squadra di Thiago Motta.Un primo tempo d'alto livello qualitativo con ben 13 tiri in porta (alla fine del match saranno 27) per la Vecchia Signora in un clima surreale, con l'intero Stadium in attesa di un gol che però non arriva.Nella ripresa i bianconeri ripartono all'assalto della porta scaligera.Ci provano da lontano sia Yildiz che Kolo Muani ma il muro veronese regge.Thiago Motta mescola le carte.Entra in campo Koopmeiners al posto di McKennie e l'oggetto misterioso Alberto Costa per Weah.L'olandese viene accolto dai fischi dello Stadium ma l'ex Atalanta cerca di non farsi condizionare.Alberto Costa appena entrato con una serpentina da destra si porta al tiro davanti alla porta di Montipò sfiorando il gol.Sfiora la rete anche Yildiz che con una conclusione che finisce sull'esterno della rete, fa sussultare lo Stadium.Motta inserisce anche Kalulu per Gatti e subito dopo arriva il vantaggio Juve firmato Thuram.Il francese beneficia di un super assist di Cambiaso da sinistra imbeccato a sua volta da Locatelli.Finalmente e meritatamente Juve in vantaggio, 1-0.Nel finale di gara, trova gloria addirittura il redivivo Koopmeiners che trova il raddoppio grazie a una conclusione in area piccola su assist perfetto di Mbangula.Di questo e altro parleremo in questa puntata!Diteci la vostra!Ecco i link dei nostri social:CANALE TELEGRAM:https://t.me/+TYOn7FZAQwet7MAtINSTAGRAM:https://instagram.com/jtactics_?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=TWITTER:https://twitter.com/RadioMDN?t=woKQltSFRUTw9qibbRZaJA&s=09

Diciottesima puntata della settima stagione di J-TACTICS, la rubrica di radiomegliodiniente.com, dedicata alla vecchia signora bianconera.Focus sul lunch match domenicale tra i padroni di casa bianconeri e i toscani dell'Empoli.La Juventus batte in rimonta l'Empoli con un sonoro, ma anche sofferto 4-1.Ancora una volta decisivo il nuovo arrivato Kolo Muani, autore di una doppietta e al suo terzo gol in due partite dopo la rete messa a segno nella sconfitta di Napoli.Non sono, come detto, mancati i patemi d'animo per la vecchia signora.Gli ospiti toscani infatti erano andati in vantaggio con l'ex De Sciglio, che su calcio d'angolo viene lasciato completamente solo e non ha problemi a infilare in rete il pallone di testa.La Juve accusa il colpo e non riesce a reagire, al 14′ Gatti salva un gol fatto su un altro corner empolese, poco dopo l'arbitro Zufferli prima concede un rigore ai toscani per fallo di Di Gregorio in uscita su Maleh, poi viene richiamato dal VAR all'on-field review e cancella la sua decisione per un precedente fallo di mano di Anjorin.Dopo oltre 20 minuti di pura sofferenza i bianconeri si svegliano, prima un ottimo intervento di Vasquez poi un po' di sfortuna su una conclusione di Koopmeiners deviata fuori dal compagno McKennie fanno in modo che il risultato resti a favore degli ospiti.Si va dunque a riposo con i bianconeri sotto di un gol e sotto una selva di fischi da parte dei propri supporters.Nel secondo tempo la Juve parte a spron battuto riversandosi in avanti con veemenza per ribaltare il risultato.L'operazione sorpasso si concretizza grazie alla doppietta di un Kolo Muani bomber implacabile.Tra il 61′ e il 64′ il calciatore arrivato in prestito dal PSG stravolge le sorti di un match fino a quel momento non semplice per i padroni di casa, prima chiudendo con un tiro sul primo palo da distanza ravvicinata un'azione personale a sinistra in cui si era fatto largo superando il malcapitato Goglichidze, poi deviando in porta una conclusione innocua da fuori area di Weah.Una Juve consapevole dei propri mezzi controlla la gara, concedendo all'Empoli una sola occasione per pareggiare all'80' con Colombo, che sfiora il gol con un sinistro dal limite deviato fuori da Veiga.Dopo un pò di paura per lo scampato pericolochiudono definitivamente il discorso allo scadere prima Vlahovic, entrato subito dopo il secondo gol di Kolo Muani, e infine Conçeicao.4-1 il risultato finale, vittoria che a guardare i numeri fa pensare ad una gara dominata ma che in realtà maschera 25 minuti almeno di sofferenza e una Juve timida e ancora vittima di un deficit nell'approccio alla partita oramai quasi marchio di fabbrica per la squadra di Motta.Di questo e altro parleremo in questa puntata!Diteci la vostra!Ecco i link dei nostri social:CANALE TELEGRAM:https://t.me/+TYOn7FZAQwet7MAtINSTAGRAM:https://instagram.com/jtactics_?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=TWITTER:https://twitter.com/RadioMDN?t=woKQltSFRUTw9qibbRZaJA&s=09

Hello Rank Squad!You heard the music, and we're back in Champions League mode as the newest era of the competition gets underway with the new Swiss League stage replacing the old group stages. The first day brought us plenty of goals, and plenty of talking points, and Jack and Dean are here to discuss all of them with you after the first six games of this matchweek. We start with Liverpool's trip to Milan, where Arne Slot's Reds were able to put the ghosts of Nottingham Forest behind them on the way to what was a comprehensive and important win at San Siro; before moving onwards to discuss the 9-2 hammering that Bayern Munich handed out to Dinamo Zagreb,  and the game between Sporting CP and Lille OSC in Lisbon. In Part Two, we start with Real Madrid's 3-1 victory over VfB Stuttgart, which was very much not as easy on the Bernabeu pitch as it looked on paper, before discussing Aston Villa's successful trip to Bern, where they beat Young Boys 3-0 despite an artificial surface, and Juventus' crucial 3-1 win over PSV Eindhoven, which might have been the best performance of the season yet from Thiago Motta's new-look Bianconeri! We'll be back on Thursday to wrap up the action from the next two days of UCL action, so we'll see you very soon. It's Ranks!  And remember, if you'd like more from the Rank Squad, including extra podcasts every Monday and Friday (including our weekly Postbox taking a look at the whole weekend of football) and access to our brilliant Discord community, then why not join us here on Patreon?

Tim Weah also made his return to the field with Juventus. Weah and McKennie are set to face American teammates Tillman and Pepi with PSV in the UEFA Champions League. Another big return came in the MLS, as Messi got his first start with Inter Miami since June 1st. Messi recorded 3 goal contributions in the win over Philadelphia Union.
