  • Live Commentary

    Time:90'
    • Maccabi Haifa
    • Juventus
    • 90+3 That's it - the final whistle. Juve win 1-0. Haifa's Champion's League journey is over... well they've got two games left to play, but they can't advance from the group.
    • 90' Three minutes of added time.
    • 84' Amauri off, David Trezeguet on for Juventus.
    • 80' Lior Rafaelov has made a difference since coming on, but it doesn't look like it's going to be enough.
    • 79' Lior Rafaelov shoots high wide from distance.
    • 77' Mohammad Ghadir is inches away from making a telling connection to a Lior Rafaelov cross.
    • 76' Header from Shlomi Arbeitman is wide. He would have hoped to have done better with that chance at the back post, following a corner from Lior Rafaelov.
    • 73' Maccabi Haifa need to come out and attack. Juve are coasting to victory with relative ease.
    • 71' Yisrael Zaguri replaces Gustavo Boccoli for Maccabi Haifa.
    • 71' Ali Ottman gets his name in the book for chopping down Diego.
    • 67' Finally a decent effort at goal. Yet again Diego was at the heart of the action. The Brazilian side steps a couple of challenges before shooting wide.
    • 65' It's been messy second half with very little quality on show. Juventus are cruising.
    • 61' This game was really petered out in the second half.
    • 60' Paolo De Ceglie comes on for Tiago.
    • 56' Vladimir Dvalishvili is replaced by Lior Rafaelov.
    • 53' Amauri sees a goal ruled out for offside.
    • 50' The second half isn't quite as exciting as the first. Juve look happy to sit on their lead.
    • 48' Positive start from the home side. They're squeezing the space a lot better so far.
    • 45' Substitution for Maccabi Haifa. John Culma off for Mohammad Ghadir.
    • 45' The second half is underway.
    • 45+2 Half-time. Juventus nick a goal at the end of the half. Much deserved nonetheless.
    • 45+2 They held on as long as they could, but finally Maccabi Haifa yield to Juve's pressure. Diego found Martin Caceres on the right and the masked defender crossed for Mauro Camoranesi to crash the ball into the back of the net via a deflection. 1-0 Juve.
    • 45' Two minutes added time at the end of an action packed first half.
    • 38' Vladimir Dvalishvili turns in the box, but his shot is brilliantly blocked by Martín Caceres.
    • 36' Maccabi Haifa's John Culma is booked following a clash with Melo.
    • 35' Diego tries to chip the goalkeeper from the edge of the box. Davidovitch was back peddling, but the effort drops safely onto the top of the net.
    • 33' Another great save from Nir Davidovich. Diego slipped the ball into Amauri, but his goal bound shot was turned round the post by the Maccabi Haifa shot-stopper.
    • 32' Vladimir Dvalishvili threatens again. He fires a ball across the box.
    • 30' Diego shoots wide from the edge of the box. Surely a goal is coming....
    • 29' Moments later Vladimir Dvalishvili finds himself unmarked in the box, but he can only head over. Should have done better.
    • 29' Great chance for Maccabi Haifa. Corner from the home side fell for Vladimir Dvalishviliin the box, but he is denied from close range by Buffon.
    • 27' Booking for Maccabi Haifa's Tsepo Masilela. The South African resorted to foul play to stop Diego.
    • 25' Maccabi Haifa have slowly settled into the match. They're lucky to still be level.
    • 24' Game has gone a bit quiet after a positive start from Juve.
    • 19' Scary moment there from Buffon. The Juve keeper almost gifted Maccabi Haifa the ball in a dangerous position.
    • 18' The home side need to get a grip on this game. Their giving Juve, especially Diego, way too much room to operate. If they carry on like this it's only a matter of time before they concede.
    • 16' Both Tiago and Christian Poulsen have had decent shots from long range.
    • 14' It's another effort at goal from Juventus. Had it not been for Davidovic, Maccabi Haifa would be losing this game.
    • 10' Davidovic saves his team again. The Maccabi Haifa goalkeeper diving down low to his left to beat out a free-kick from Diego.
    • 8' Another great chance. Melo found Amauri creeping behind the Maccabi Haifa defence with a clever lifted pass. The striker's shot was well blocked by Davidovic.
    • 6' Excellent effort from Diego. With a slow and patient build-up Juve worked the ball to the little Brazilian and he found space in the box to fire off a shot. Davidovic did well to turn the powerful drive around the post.
    • 4' As might be expected - Juve are dominating the early possession.
    • 2' The crowd could play a big part in tonight's game. They need to create an intimidating atmosphere if they are to effect the concentration of the Juve players.
    • 1' And we're off Juventus kicking left to right.
    • - The players are out on the pitch. Maccabi Haifa need to win to preserve any hopes of progressing in the competition. Juventus will want to strengthen their position in a difficult group, including Bayern Munchen and Bordeaux.
    • - Juve are still without the services of the injured Alessandro Del Piero. He has been sorely missed.
    • - Hafia on the the other hand are flying. The Israeli titleholders have claimed maximum points after eight league matches. They're unbeaten in 20 Ligat Ha'Al contests.
    • - Juventus head into this game after their dispiriting weekend home loss to SSC Napoli. It was the Bianconeri's first at home in the league in nine months, dating back to a 3-2 defeat by Cagliari Calcio on 31 January.
    • - It took a 71st minute Alessandro Del Piero equaliser to salvage a point for the Bianconeri, who had earlier beaten Tel-Aviv 1-0 at home through a Mauro Camoranesi goal.
    • - This is Juventus's second visit to the Ramat Gan Stadium where they earned a 1-1 draw at Maccabi Tel-Aviv in the 2004/05 UEFA Champions League group stage.
    • - Juventus are seeking their 100th victory in the European Cup/Champions League. They have played 198, drawing 49 and losing 50.
    • - However, they will take confidence from Juventus' recent record on the road. The Bianconeri have failed to score in their last three Champions League away games and have won only one of the last seven.
    • - It's doubtful - Maccabi have never won away in the Champions League, losing four and drawing the other of their five games.
    • - Maccabi have conceded only three goals in four previous games against teams from Italy. Can they frustrate Juventus?
    • - Kayal Baram and Tiago Dutra are suspended for Maccabi Haifa.
    • - The win left Ciro Ferrara's team in second place in Group A with five points, two behind FC Girondins de Bordeaux while Haifa are still to get off the mark in terms of goals or points.
    • - Juventus ground out a 1-0 win at the Stadio Olimpico in the previous meeting between these two sides. Giorgio Chiellini's 47th minute header secured the points.
    • - And for Juventus: Buffon, Cáceres, Chiellini, Melo, Grosso, Amauri, Camoranesi, Poulsen, Diego, Tiago, Legrottaglie. Subs: Manninger, Cannavaro, Trezeguet, Molinaro, Grygera, De Ceglie, Immobile.
    • - The team line-ups are in. Here's Maccabi Haifa: Davidovitch, Teixeira, Boccoli, Jairo Culma, Dvalishvili, Masilela, Osman, Arbeitman, Katan, Keinan, Meshumar. Subs: Edri, Harazi, Maymon, Tawatha, Ghadir, Zaguri, Refaelov.
