Among the 3 teams (Marcabi, Bayern Munich & Juventus) that were competiting with Bordeaux for the 1st round, this is the game that I was looking forward to most. For the following reasons:
1. Juventus is the only club I knew
2. It is an Italian club and I love everything Italian (eg. pasta, Lumborghini, Ducati, Totti etc)
3. My favorite goalkeeper, Buffon is in Juventus
As we were sitting behind the goalpost, I kept snapping photos of Buffon but I don't dare to do it too obviously because we were sitting at the Bordeaux fansclub area.
can catch a glimsp of his face...
And hence, though I was sitting at the Bordeaux fans area, I was actually secretly rooting for Juventus. Bordeaux is already qualified for 2nd round anyway.
Dissapointingly, this match wasn't as exciting as the Bayern match. I guess because they were already qualified for 2nd round, Bordeaux didn't send their star player Gourcuff (the most handsome player) to the field. Juventus, who was 1 point away from qualifying didn't seem to be playing to win. In fact, the whole 1st half of the game feels like a friendly match.
See Buffon in action... keke...
The match only got more heated up when Bordeaux scored their 1st goal. Juventus seems to have woken up from their idea and attacked more but still the attempts were half hearted. So I guess they desserved it when Bordeaux scored a 2nd goal just before the end of the game. And Juventus lost 2-0.
But the atmosphere this time round was really high. The Bordeaux fans were damn damn damn happy and high when they scored the goals. They cheered louder than the previous games and when the 2nd goal was scored, everyone stood on the seats and jumped in joy. They seems to have a personal vendetta against the Italians because eventhough the Juventus fans didn't do anything to offend them, after Bordeaux won, they all faced the Juventus fans, booed them and showed them their middle fingers. I think they are still sore about losing to Italy in the last world cup. :p
this is how high the fans were... the whole stadium singing away...
Anyway, I am happy that Bordeaux got into the 2nd round cos that will means I will have more matches to watch. Hubby is praying that they will play against Man U in the next round. I am praying it will be a club I know (I only know a few clubs).
