Simon Woodward steered Juventus to victory against RCD Espanyol.
Juventus beat RCD Espanyol 4 - 1 in their The Boards.ie League Shield Semi Final fixture.
Finnbogason scored a brace and was later voted Man of the Match for his performance.
Cabella and Castro were also amongst the goalscorers.

I accept or reject bids no longer than a few hours after they're made and I only normally log in 5 minutes in the morning and maybe a half an hour at night, I can't see why others can't.
To be honest I sometimes like to keep people waiting who think they can fire in ridiculously low bids for the highest scoring striker IN ALL 4 LEAGUES!!!
If people want me to give up Derdiyok they have to tempt me with something
pretty f**king spectacular.0 -

Your youth players won't rise just from playing them.
Remember the higher position you finish... the more cash you get

The point is you've launched attacks on people yourself for not knowing things about how to play the game, so of course it'll be pointed out when you make such mistakes.
Also have you forgotten you were the one who an hour ago posted that Juvi would beat me "easily". Think after that I'm not going to point out the irony involved in your tactical decision for the rest of the season? 0 -

Pompei had to be escorted out of St. James' Park just over two weeks ago after he was at the centre of a controversial league game against Dynamo Kiev. Not one but two penalties were awarded to Kiev in a 2-1 victory for the Ukraine side and O Grady hit out saying "how that man qualified as a referee I will never know".
O Grady was later fined and warned about his future comments but this hasn't stopped the Magpie boss hitting out at UEFA over his appointment claiming "UEFA are making it extremely difficult for English sides to do well"
From the Newcastle based publication:
Joe Kinnear professes he is the best director of football in the Premier League:D
Newcastle’s newly appointed director of football, Joe Kinnear, has wasted little time in yet again speaking to the media with regards to his appointment and yet again he has caused a stir as a direct result of his claims to the Shields Gazette. Joe Kinnear began the interview by explaining just why Newcastle United had approached him to become director of football at St James’ Park, insisting that is was Mike Ashley’s desire to keep up with the rest of the Premier League whom Joe Kinnear claimed, “all have a director of football.” This however is simply not true.
Kinnear went on to yet again publicize his achievements within the game, “I’ve been a manager for 35 years. I’ve been manager of the year. I’ve won every award there is in football as a player. I think all those qualities put me head and shoulders above every other director of football.” Joe Kinnear again presenting misinformation with his managerial career proper only beginning in 1984 not 1978 as he suggested. Kinnear also failed to recognize the worryingly little experience he has as a director of football with Tottenham Hotspur’s Franco Baldini and Chelsea’s Michael Emenalo both possessing wide experience of the role which Kinnear simply does not have.
Joe Kinnear in his interview with the Shields Gazette was adamant his experience as a manager would be enough for him to slot seamlessly into the role of director of football with the sixty six year old believing the majority of the skills to be transferrable, “Some directors of football have never played the game. I’m lending my experience as a manager for all those years.” Kinnear then went on to say how he had spent almost two years at Newcastle United in the position of manager when in reality it was only six months, before stating, “I would still be there had it [his heart attack in 2009] not occurred.”
These are again claims that aren’t likely to sit well with current manager Damien O Grady with the relationship between the pair rumoured to have gotten off to poor start following the cancellation of a pre-agreed deal for FC Twente defender Douglas ordered by Kinnear which was reportedly due to the fact he had never heard of the Brazilian.
On 16 June 2013 in a series of telephone interviews Kinnear claimed he had been appointed as Director of Football for Newcastle United. In a Talksport interview over the telephone on 17 June 2013, Kinnear claimed to have replaced someone called "Derek Lambesi" as the club's director of football, signed Dean Holdsworth at Wimbledon for £50,000 (Actually £650,000), sold Robbie Earle (Retired a year after Kinnear left), signed goalkeeper Tim Krul when he was previously manager (actually signed by Graeme Souness three years prior) and has been awarded the LMA Manager of the Year award three times despite only winning the award once. Kinnear claimed to have signed John Hartson on a free when he in fact paid £7.5 million for the striker. He also mispronounced the names of Yohan Cabaye, Hatem Ben Arfa, Shola Ameobi, and others in the Talksport interview. The appointment, a three-year contract, was confirmed by Newcastle United on 18 June. The confusion around Kinnear's appointment to the role was criticised by former club chairman Freddy Shepherd in an interview with BBC Sport.
Freddy Shepherd went on to say that he hopes this ludicrous appointment doesn't distract from footballing matters on the pitch0 -
