Even Standard Liege's ball control was still above Juventus in this match, but the draw was quite good even though it was only a friendly match. Juventus against Cremonese looks like it will be an easy match, we know that Cremonese really struggled to win in the previous Serie A match and they are already in the relegation zone, that's very bad.

I don't think that they habe big chance on Europe League. For we know that there are also some clubs that are far stronger and more consistent than Juventus like Arsenal, Barcelona, and also some others. So, this will become a difficult expectation amd need very extra efforts to realize.

In Serie A itself, Juventus achievement is still not as good and consistent as Milan and Napoli. It seems that it will be too difficult to take over the higjer place
 Except if Milan lost and Juventus wins.

Juventus had better do so. Because it is much more difficult for them to win the Serie A title comparing to the Europa League. Thinking of Napoli's extraordinary performance, the situation is really like this I'm afraid. Actually they can focus on both tournaments but I don't know if their mental condition will help them about it. They have been doing pretty nice in the Serie A for weeks. They can normally combine this with a good performance in the Europa League.

But the recent crisis must have made some impact on them. We will see how strong they will make up for that in the coming days.

It's only a friendly match, not necessarily in the match against Inter Milan they will also lose. The results of this match will be the material for Napoli's evaluation, because of the four friendly matches they were only able to win against Crystal Palace and Antalyaspor, while the other two matches Napoli lost 1-4 to Lille and lost 0-3 to Villareal

At least this is an evaluation material for coach Luciano Spalletti, bearing in mind that the second half of the season of the Serie-A League will be increasingly competitive and the competition for the Scudetto title will be even tighter in the future.

Napoli's consistency in the first half of the season is indeed difficult to break, even Napoli's chances are quite large when facing an away game against Inter Milan, an unbeaten record of 13 out of 15 matches is a pretty good result for Napoli, but the problem is maintaining this record is rather difficult for Napoli in the second half season, as their challengers will continue to put pressure on each game to come. Moreover, the fight for the Scudetto title will heat up after the match continues.

The results of the friendly matches that have been carried out by Napoli are also unsatisfactory, meaning that there are many evaluations that must be carried out by the coach and I think Inter Milan's chances of breaking Napoli's unbeaten record are quite large at the San Siro Stadium.

I was just reading some stuff about Juventus and it seems they want to go all in for Europa League this season and first game with Nantes seems pretty great for them during the fact that Nantes are clearly not having a great season in Ligue 1 with only 1 place between them and relegation spots.

It's also been a very long time since Juventus got an international trophy right ? This year seems to have the best chance to win a trophy as UCL is still a far away dream for them in current state of the club.

A friendly match will not have any effect; in fact, when playing a friendly match, you must be careful because your opponent,Maybe the enemy has the potential to know the strategy used or maybe he also has the potential to injure the main players, which will cause losses; therefore, friendly matches should not be taken seriously.

yes, Juventus finally played better. Both teams showed an interesting game. the fight is almost over, but it looks like the result will still be the same 1-1.
hopefully, this will be an important capital for both teams to continue competing in the League. Juve after this will face a fairly weak team, Cremonese. until now Cremonese has not won. it would be bad for them if the situation didn't change. Juventus, of course, will certainly get an easy win.

I don't think there can be a comparison with Juventus' performance in Serie A in the future due to a temporary draw against Standard in a test match. Many of the main players were saved and I think Juventus tried to rotate almost all the line-ups in this trial match. Until the 70th minute, at this time the score was still 1-1 and Juventus were not too focused on winning in a test match.

Regardless of the friendly match results, I think Juventus are still a team has competitive in Serie A at the moment after 6 wins in a row and moving up to 3rd place for now. Remaining 10 points left from Napoli still not close opportunity for Juventus in tittle race become the winner of Serie A in this season.

In the second half it seemed that Juventus had changed their game pattern and now Juventus have managed to equalize through a penalty goal, hoping that both teams will continue to give a good performance, buying and selling attacks and pressing will be interesting to watch.
True, for the two teams this is just a friendly match but also a test match before returning to their respective regular leagues, regardless of the win or loss results for Juventus and Standard Liege the results are not too important, what is important is that the players enjoy the match.

The match was still ongoing with so many times remaining. Juventus has chance to make scores. I think that juventus was not taking the current match as an important match. Im sure that juventus was using this as a practice match only.
That's why so many main starters were not playing against standard liege. I see that if juventus may also lose in this match but that's not something that is important for me to to regret it. Whatever the result from this match and that's fine.

But still, I think Juventus are still playing more main players compared to second tier players. Also, even though currently Juventus are still 1-0 down but there is still a second half which of course Juventus can still turn things around. Because if I compare with previous friendly matches, even Juventus played against Arsenal and could win the match, then playing against Standard Liege seems like it is still possible for Juventus to win.
But even if for example Standard Liege can maintain this lead, then I don't think it's a problem for Juventus either because it's only a friendly match.

After all, Juventus have regained their best form in Serie A, this can at least keep the Juventus squad's morale in a good trend in the future.
But indeed, if Juventus can win this match too then of course it will make Juventus better. Because Juventus can continue to win, then of course this result can be proof that Juventus will indeed be better prepared for the next match in Serie A.

Standard Liege looks to dominate the match. already 1 goal ahead, and they are still playing pressing.
Standard Liege is currently in 6th position in the Belgian League standings. of course the quality can also be considered even though they are not from a competitive League.
most likely Juventus will change its strategy in the second half. there is still the possibility of Juve getting a win if they manage to change the pattern of play.

It seems that Juventus only used half of their main players in this friendly match, while the score was still 0-1 in favor of Standard Liege through an own goal from Danilo, even though the match was running fiercely, it did not rule out the possibility that Juventus would still win this match. I don't know much about Standard Liege but they are playing pretty well.

Napoli lost the friendly match, it can't be good for their team. There is no option to take friendly matches easy. From such matches, the players of the team will build confidence in themselves.

Defeat in a friendly match will increase the confidence of the Napoli players to improve their quality in official matches, they are increasingly aware that they can still be beaten. The defeat in a friendly match gave Napoli a lesson. When they started the match in Serie A after the break, they were able to improve their performance, especially since the opponents they were facing were not just any team. Napoli will have an away match at the Giuseppe Meazza, Inter will not allow Napoli to take away three points at home, especially since Inter is trying to get into the top four.

Friendly game for Juventus in the next 10 minutes if you don't know what to do.

Some players are still in vacation due the World Cup 

Next up is the match between Napoli and Inter Milan on January 5. Hope that match will be full of great competition. Because both teams are currently in good form.

Lose from Salernitana and Juventus in Serie A even eliminate on europa league this proven Lazio in the poor performance period and actually Lazio has strong defense before but i don't know why lately seems Lazio has failed to performing well and losing many points and on standings league too their position were threaten by Inter which is has same points with them so if Lazio slipped then possibly Inter will overtake their position but for upcoming match they have an advantages because only faced mediocre team Lecce and i know Lecce in the good shape after ended their poor results with gets 3 consecutive without lose but i think Lazio has capability to win the match so i am confident they will beat Lecce later

The fact that Napoli have lost a lot of friendly games may even turn out to be good for them. If they continued to win, they could believe that they are invincible and they will get everything easily. After bad results, such illusions dissipate and it helps the team to play at full strength. Given the fact that these friendly games do not affect the standings in any way, Napoli are in the black no matter how you look at it.

Last season, if I'm not mistaken, Milan failed to win against Salernitana. At that time AC Milan almost suffered defeat, when Salernitana players managed to change the position with a score of 2-1, Milan was lucky because Milan managed to score goal (2-2). This is a reminder for AC Milan to pay attention to every movement of the Salernitana players. Good ball possession does not guarantee victory, therefore Pioli and AC Milan players must be able to take advantage of every attack to score goals. Because one mistake can making points gap far away from Napoli, ifthey can win against Inter Milan.
