Gianluigi Buffon |
A straightforward first half before being called into action to deny Puccairelli and Tavano. Solid Superman |
7.0 |
||
Giorgio Chiellini |
Had a good chance with a header, robust and reliable afterwards, breaking up attacks down the left. Kaiser. |
6.5 |
||
Leonardo Bonucci |
Growing in confidence with each game and each passing performance. No muss, no fuss. |
6.5 |
||
Angelo Ogbonna |
Made some great runs forward to try and support the attack, injured and substituted. |
6.0 |
||
Roberto Pereyra |
Great dribbling forward, some nice linkup with the midfield and some good covering runs to support the defence. Improved. |
6.5 |
||
Claudio Marchisio |
Incredible work rate, regularly forward to try and create something for his team. Had at least one good goal scoring chance. |
6.5 |
||
Arturo Vidal |
Slightly off the pace at times. Didn’t look too impressive in the first half but improved in the second. Broke up attacks and pushed forward into the box on occasion. Improving |
6.5 |
||
Andrea Pirlo – MOM |
More like the Pirlo of the last season. A sublime free kick to open the scoring. |
7.5 |
||
Kwadwo Asamoah |
Piled on the pressure, pushing forward into the opposition half and forced a few saves from Bassi. Pacey. |
6.5 |
||
Sebastian Giovinco |
A frustrating evening for the Atomic Ant. Struggled to make his impact on the game but forced a few blocks from the Empoli defence. Disappointing. |
6.0 |
||
Alvaro Morata |
Pacey, alert and lively throughout the game. Got into some great positions and scored a beautiful goal to secure the points. Exciting. |
7.0 |
||
Substitutions |
||||
Carlos Tevez |
Juve missed his energy and industry in the first half. Came on and immediately made an impact by setting up Morata for the second goal. Industrious. |
7.0 |
||
Stephan Lichsteiner |
Pushed forward as often as possible after coming on as a substitute. Added more pace and thrust on the right. Pacey. |
