Presentación Del Partido

El tercer encuentro del prestigioso torneo International Champions Cup USA, en donde juegan los equipos pertenecientes la elite del futbol mundial. Juventus y Barcelona se enfrentan en un partido que nos hace recordar los cuartos de final de la reciente edición de la Uefa Champions League. Comencemos con la previa!!!

Juventus

---

---

Juventus had a market not as impressive as the one they had last year, but certainly, it was very surprising because of the unexpected departure in bad terms of Leonardo Bonucci and Daniel Alves due disciplinary problems.

On the other hand, they have managed to retain their greatest star currently, Paulo Dybala, as well as other renowned players like Higuain, Cuadrado, Mandzukic and Alex Sandro. This in addition to the signing of young players, who will surely give a very high performance, like Betancur, Szczesny and De Sciglio, guarantees that the team still maintains its great balance in all the lines, in order to have a great season.

And let's not forget that Allegri is still the great leader of the team, who did not lose that Vecchia signora lost its course before the unexpected and unexpected departure of Antonio Conte.

This pre season match with Barcelona is an excellent way to start for Juventus, because they will start their pre-season, having their first game, against those considered by many as the best team in the world, and when you have great aspirations like Juventus it is necessary to have such encounters where they can be measured themselves to see if they are at the level of the elite, in order to keep on winning in Italy and take that step further at the European level to finally win the Uefa Champions League.

Juventus tuvo un mercado no tan impresionante como el año pasado pero si algo sorpresivo debido a la salida en malos términos de Leonardo Bonucci y de Daniel Alves debido a problemas disciplinarios. Por otro lado han logrado retener a su más grande estrella actualmente, Paulo Dybala, asi como otros jugadores de renombre como Higuain, Cuadrado, Mandzukic y Alex Sandro.

Esto sumado a jugadores jóvenes, pero que seguro darán un rendimiento muy alto, como Betancur, Sczesny y De Sciglio, garantiza que el equipo aun mantiene su gran equilibrio en todas las líneas, para de esta forma tener una gran temporada. Y no nos olvidemos de que aun cuenta con Allegri quien es el gran líder del equipo, quien no perdió que la vechia signora perdiera su rumbo ante la partida inesperada y sorpresiva de Antonio Conte.

El encuentro con Barcelona es una excelente forma de comenzar para la Juventus, debido a que comenzaran su pretemporada enfrentándose a quienes muchos consideran el mejor equipo del mundo, y cuando se tienen grandes aspiraciones como la Juventus es necesario tener encuentros de este tipo donde puedan medirse y ver si se encuentran al nivel de la elite mundial.

For this match the team will not have any player injured or suspended, the expected formation is: 4-3-3.

Barcelona

---

---

Barcelona has made discreet signings (Nelson Semedo) this season looking to regain the balance they lost with the departure of Alves to Juventus last season, but the biggest problem and concern in this market is the possible exit at any time during the International Champions Cup of Neymar, as his representative, who happens to be his father too, is in advanced negotiations with the Paris Saint Germain, and it seems that everything is ready to make the official announcement, even in spite of the great hermeticism that appears to surrounds of the player and in Barcelona with respect to this particular subject, it all seems like a closed deal .

This could be a devastating blow, since the nucleus of this glorious team is their trident of attack, the famous MSN: Messi, Suarez and Neymar, and if this happens it would be the last blow of the debacle that the team has been experiencing since last season, where they couldn't win the domestic league and the Uefa Champions League.

This match with Juventus, despite being friendly within the framework of the preseason, is an excellent opportunity for the Blaugrana players to redeem themselves before their followers, after being recently eliminated by the Bianco Neri in the quarterfinals of the Champions League 2016/2017. And of course, a great way to regain the competitive form by playing against to a team that has regained in the last seasons their strength as one of the elite teams in the world of football.

Barcelona ha realizado incorporaciones discretas (Nelson Semedo) esta temporada buscando retomar el equilibrio que perdieron con la salida de Alves, pero lo preocupante en este mercado es la posible salida en cualquier momento durante la International Champions Cup, de Neymar, ya que su representante se encuentra en negociaciones muy avanzadas con el Paris Saint Germain, y parece que todo esta listo para hacer el anuncio oficial, aun a pesar del gran hermetismo que se presenta en el entorno del jugador y en el Barcelona respecto a este tema en particular.

De concretarse esta situación sería un golpe devastante, ya que el núcleo de este equipo es el tridente de ataque Messi, Suarez y Neymar, lo cual terminaría de dar el último golpe en la debacle que presento el equipo en la temporada pasada, donde no pudo coronarse como campeón de liga y tampoco como campeón de Europa en la Champions League.

Este encuentro con la Juventus, a pesar de ser un amistoso dentro del marco de la pretemporada, es una oportunidad excelente para los jugadores blaugranas de redimirse ante su público, luego de ser recientemente eliminados por los bianconeri en los cuartos de final de la Champions League 2016/2017, y de retomar el ritmo competitivo contra un club que ha sabido reposicionarse en las últimas temporadas dentro de la elite del futbol europeo y mundial.

All the players will be available for the team, and the expected line up for this match is 4-3-3 .

Todos los jugadores se encontraran disponibles para el técnico y se espera que alineación para este encuentro sea la 4-3-3.
