The friendly summer game Joan Gamper Trophy between the two giants.  Barcelona crushed Juventus  on Sunday 8 August 2021 at the Estadi Johan Cruyff.   Barcelona win the Joan Gamper Trohpy.  A bad game for Juventus and better be ready for the Serie A kickoff!  It is a humiliating defeat. The match with a sadness note because Lionel Messi is no longer a Barcelona player while some fans chanted his name.

It is Barcelona to open the score with a fast goal in the 3rd minute.  Memphis defeating Juventus goalkeeper with a left footed shot to the bottom left corner.  The assist is by Yusuf Demir.  Bam, not a good start for the Bianconeri…. wake up Juve!

ROMA: LATE EQUALISER PREVENTS LATEST PRE-SEASON WIN

AS Roma, International Friendly Club

Roma were forced to settle for a 1-1 draw with FC Porto on Wednesday evening, despite a positive overall performance in the Algarve.

In what was far and away the most intensive, combative 90 minutes of pre-season so far for the side, Gianluca Mancini’s header early in the second half looked to be sending the Giallorossi on the way to a fifth-straight victory since preparations for the new campaign began.

But a late equaliser from Vitor Ferreira ultimately ensured the game ended with both sides sharing the spoils.

Jose Mourinho named a strong starting XI at the Estadio Municipal de Bela Vista – and only resorted to making major changes late in the contest, such was his clear desire to give those starters a sustained runout.

In the first half the Giallorossi had plenty of the ball but struggled to turn that into clear-cut opportunities; they perhaps had goalkeeper Rui Patricio – who made two sublime saves – to thank for the fact it remained 0-0 at the break.

In the second half, however, Mourinho’s side were increasingly dominant. Their reward eventually came from a set-piece, as Mancini headed home from Nicolo Zaniolo’s delivery to break the deadlock.

It would not prove enough to clinch the win – but the boss will no doubt take the positives from a game against opponents who start their competitive season in just 10 days’ time.

Roma, meanwhile, have further friendlies upcoming – including against Real Betis in just over a week’s time.

PORTO 1-1 ROMA

Scorers: V. Ferreira (89′); Mancini (56′)

Roma starting XI: Rui Patricio; Karsdorp, Mancini, Smalling, Calafiori, Darboe (Villar, HT), Diawara, Zaniolo, Pellegrini, Mkhitaryan, Dzeko.
