The team even manages to make a play where Pinilla receives it from Eriksson and throws it to Usman , but Usman gets too ahead and the play becomes invalid , with the play being impeded in the 65th minute Ivo takes Usman and puts on Sal

The Juventus team comes out with a quick attack with a pass from Pirlo to Pepe who tries to cross into the area, but the ball hits the defense and Pepe receives it back and sends the ball back to Pirlo who finishes from outside the area, the ball goes to the corner of the goal with a tremendous force and effect as the goalkeeper blocks the ball, hitting it for a corner
