Angel Di María showed Juventus just what it바카라s been missing 바카라 and what it will be without again this weekend. Di María provided three assists to help Juventus pick up its first UEFA Champions League 2022-23 points of the season with a 3-1 victory over Maccabi Haifa on Wednesday. (More Football News)
After goals from Adrien Rabiot and Dusan Vlahovic, Maccabi substitute Din David scored in the 75th minute to ensure a tense finale but Rabiot all but sealed the result seven minutes from time. 바카라I try to do my job, it바카라s what makes me happy, creating assists to score goals,바카라 Di María said.
It was an inspired performance from Di María, who recently returned from injury, and he will be sorely missed this weekend as he is suspended for the trip to defending champion AC Milan after being sent off in the defeat to Monza before the international break.
바카라I바카라m very disappointed not to be able to play against Milan,바카라 Di María said. 바카라But I deserved it for the mistake I made.바카라 Juventus, which lost its opening two Champions League matches for the first time, moved four points behind Benfica and Paris Saint-Germain, which drew 1-1 in the other Group H match.
바카라Di Maria was really good with his passes, he is an extraordinary player, it was his first game in quite a while and he did really well,바카라 Allegri said.
바카라Now we have to stay silent, get our heads down and work hard because we are behind in both Serie A and the Champions League. We have to win in Israel and then go and play our game in Lisbon and try our utmost to win.바카라 Maccabi remained on zero points.
Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri was under pressure after a poor start to the season but there had been positive signs at the weekend in a 3-0 victory over Bologna, which was only the Bianconeri바카라s third win of the campaign.
Juve바카라s injury problems were easing while Maccabi was without several of its Jewish players in the starting lineup as they had been fasting because of Yom Kippur, the holiest day in Judaism.
Juventus struggled to break down a resolute Maccabi defense but, just as the whistles and jeers were raining down from its own fans, it took the lead 10 minutes before halftime as Rabiot received a throughball from Di María and smashed it into the roof of the net.
Di María sent another great ball through five minutes after the break to release Vlahović, who bore down one-on-one with the goalkeeper before slotting into the bottom right corner. 바카라He gets the ball down the field very well and then Vlahović is devastating in those situations,바카라 Allegri said.
Maccabi coach Barak Bakhar brought on two first-team regulars on the hour mark in Omer Atzili and Dolev Haziza and Atzili almost got his side back in it immediately but saw Juventus goalkeeper Wojciech Szczęsny turn his effort onto the post.
Moments later, Di María came close to getting his hat trick of assists with another fantastic ball for Vlahović but the goal was ruled out for offside. Another Maccabi substitute did halve the deficit, just two minutes after coming off the bench, as David ran onto a pass and rounded Szczęsny 바카라 who had come way out of the area 바카라 before firing into the empty net.
Atzili hit the post with a free kick as Maccabi threatened to equalize before Rabiot headed home Di María바카라s corner.
