Lazio Vs. Juventus: A Juventus Attack Would Sure Be Lovely

Juventus midfielder Simone Pepe earns a yellow card after running over Stephan Lichtsteiner and using his studs on his leg while doing so. Is the match at the Stadio Olimpico about to get feisty? Will we see revenge by Lazio in the form of a red-cardable offense?

The real question in this match, however, is why on earth Juventus are playing catenaccio. A draw does nothing for the visitors, whereas a win could at least get them closer to a Europa league position. Who knows -- maybe the Old Lady has no desire to be in Europe? There are just so many questions to be asked of the match right now. Including why on earth Richard Whittle pronounces "Matuzalém" like "Muslera." I keep thinking that Nando has left the Lazio goal open and is participating in the attack.

But at least Lazio are attacking, which is more than one can say for Juventus.
