Juventus remains unbeaten
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 10 - 12 - 2011

Claudio Marchisio scored another decisive goal – this time in extra time – as Serie A leader Juventus edged Bologna 2-1 to reach the Italian Cup quarterfinals Thursday and remain unbeaten this season.
In the 102nd minute, Marchisio struck an accurate, angled shot just beyond the reach of Bologna goalkeeper Federico Agliardi.
Marchisio also scored a late winner in a 2-0 victory over Cesena on Sunday and he has eight goals in all competitions this season, including one for Italy.
Emanuele Giaccherini put Juventus ahead in the 90th but Andrea Raggi equalized six minutes into injury time.
Giaccherini intercepted a pass near midfield, dribbled by Bologna's entire defense and found the target from a sharp angle; while Raggi scored with a header from a corner.
Not having qualified for Europe this season, Juventus is keen on winning its first Italian Cup since 1995.
The Bianconeri have won this competition nine times, matching Roma for the record.
Juventus will play the winner between Roma and Fiorentina in the quarterfinals.
Atletico beaten
A second-string Atletico Madrid missed a penalty and had a man sent off in a 2-1 defeat at third-tier Albacete in their King's Cup last-32 first-leg match Thursday.
Coach Gregorio Manzano rested most of his first-choice players at Albacete's Carlos Belmonte stadium.
Atletico's La Liga rivals Athletic Bilbao had a relatively easy night at third-tier Real Oviedo in Thursday's later kickoff, winning 1-0 thanks to an 11th-minute strike from forward Oscar de Marcos, who also hit the post late on.
