Cartagena, Colombia - Old City by night.

Juventus beat Lazio 2 - 0 and edged closer to winning back-to-back Scudettos. Highlights include Arturo Vidals x 2 goals which sunk the Romans. 

Juventus beat Pescara 2 - 1 edging closer to winning the Scudetto. 

Goal scorers were: Vucinic x 2 and Cascione. 

Juventus played a solid game against Pescara. They were able to hold plenty of possession, threaten the goalie, and move the ball around at will. Pescara, however, were compact and fought hard against the Bianconari with the first half coming to an end at 0 - 0. 

The second half showed a much hungrier Juventus team who were able to finally score after well taken Vucinic penalty kick. The momentum was all in Juves favor which shortly after the first goal, Vucinic was able to claim his second goal of the evening. The game seemed to be in the bag until a wonderful Cascione goal got the visitors on the scoresheet. 

Juventus lose 2 - 0 to Bayern Munich in the first leg of the quarterfinals of the Champions League. The German powerhouse did their homework and outplayed the mighty Juventus by applying constant high pressure and man marking Pirlo. Juventus came out flat and could not make the adjustments during the course of play to combat Bayerns pressure. Ultimately, Jupp Heynckes got his tactics right and prepared his team well. The better team won. 

Juventus - Harlem Shake - featuring Pirlo, Pogba, Matri, Bonucci, Quagliarella. 

Juventus triumphed over Catania 1 - 0 today. The hosts were able to score late with Giacherini netting the winner. 

I was unable to watch the game and therefore cant not provide a detail assessment of it. 

Highlights of the game are embedded and my observations are as follows;

Pogbas control when collecting Giachherini is simply superb. That might seem simple, but his technical ability were in full display. 

Giachherini was completely indecisive of his celebration after he scored. He needs to score more so it becomes natural.
