Juventus is an Italian football club, they are based in Turin and are the 3rd oldest football club in the whole of Italy. They are the most popular Italian team and one of the most supported clubs in the world.
Excepting 1 season for their entire history they have played in the top-flight that has been known as the Serie A since 1929. The Juventus soccer jersey is an icon of Italian football.
Since 2003 American sportswear producer Nike has held the license to manufacture the Juventus shirt. For Nike this is one of their best selling replica kits, recent statistics list them as selling 480,000 shirts per year over the last 5 seasons.
Nike's contract is soon due to expire and a new deal has been announced with rival sportswear brand Adidas, this will begin in the 2015 - 2016 season.
Nike has launched the Juventus home soccer jersey 2013 - 2014. It features the iconic black and white stripes that the team has sported since 1903.
The top is designed with a white V-neck collar that is modern and stylish. The front of the shirt is adorned with the club crest, Nike Swoosh and Italian flag crest, beneath these across the chest is the Jeep sponsorship logo.
The UEFA Champions League is a prestigious annual European tournament. The top clubs from each European league qualify and attempt to best the competition in order to be crowned Champions of Europe.
In the past we have seen Juventus lift this much sought after trophy on 2 occasions, in 1985 and 1996.
The 2013 - 2014 Champions League tournament is the 59th time the competition has been held. After finishing top of the Italian Serie A at the end of last season with 87 points, 9 points clear of closest rivals Napoli, the team in their Juventus home soccer jersey 2013 - 2014 was guaranteed qualification for this years tournament.
The team was drawn in Group B alongside Real Madrid, Galatasaray and Copenhagen.
The group stage of the competition sees each team play each other in 2-legged home and away matches. So far 4 out of the 6 games have been played. Of these the team that wear the Juventus Soccer Jersey have only secured 3 points putting them at the bottom of the table.
Real Madrid is at the top with 10 points, however, all is not yet lost as both Galatasaray and Copenhagen have 4 points.
The 1st match on 17th September saw the team and their Juventus soccer jerseys travel to Copenhagen, the home side opened the scoring but Quagliarella equalized in the 54th minute to secure a draw and their 1st point.
The next game on 2nd October also ended in a draw against Galatasaray, this was a disappointing result on home turf, it was a game they needed to win.
The following 2 Champions League matches saw the players meet Real Madrid both at home and away. The 1st game at the Bernabeu in Madrid ended in the team's first loss of the 2013 - 2014 tournament.
On 5th November they met again in Turin. It was a hard fought game for both teams but unfortunately for Juventus they were unable to secure a much needed win, taking away 1 point from the 2-2 draw.
The remaining 2 matches will be played at the end of November and beginning of December.
The top 2 teams in each group advance to the next stage, with so few points separating the bottom 3 teams the players that wear the Juventus soccer jersey still have an opportunity to move to the next stage if they can overcome their recent lack of European form and secure 3 points against Galatasaray and Copenhagen.
It is reported that 29% of Italian football fans support Juventus, and that they have over 180 million fans around the world.
Many of these, particularly those in Italy are extremely loyal to their club. Sales of the Juventus home soccer jersey 2013 2014 are unlikely to drop dramatically although fans will be disappointed if they don't make it past the group stages.
If they can secure some wins and move further into the competition sales may soar as an increasing number of fans get behind the team.
