Mario Mandzukic was shown the red card for excessive protests towards the referee
These are our tops and flops
TOP:
Juan Cuadrado (Juve) – Provides the assist for Khedira, creates all sort of troubles on the right.
Stipe Perica (Udinese) – He scored the opener and had two more chances which, however, were brilliantly saved by Gigi Buffon.
Gianluigi Buffon (Juve) – Miracles do happen when Gigi is between the sticks. Two vital saves at the end of the first half to secure Juve lead.
FLOPS
Samir (Udinese) – One of the crazies own goals we’ve seen this season
Mario Mandukic (Juve) – One can protest with the referee but not as much. Deserved second yellow card that complicates Juventus’ game. You don’t expect that from such an experienced footballer.
