Juventus is currently the champion of Italian soccer. They have won the Serie A title for the last 3 consecutive football seasons and is certain to be looking for a 4th. The Serie A league does not kick off for another few weeks, but the Juventus soccer jersey has been gaining exposure playing friendly games in Australia and Asia.As well as the traditional black and white stripe home soccer jersey, football kit supplier Nike has also recently launched the brand new Juventus away shirt 2014 2015. In a departure from last season's bold yellow away shirt, this is a sleek blue football shirt with graduating star pattern on the front. Yellow trim around the neckline and sleeves finish the look of this away shirt perfectly. The home and away soccer jersey is available to order at Soccer Box while supplies last.
Asian Pre-Season Tour
Many football teams use the summer break as an opportunity to travel and participate in overseas friendly games or tournaments. These football matches give rise to the opportunity for practice, training and integrating new squad members into their new position and team. This summer Juventus has had a more sedate summer schedule than some of their other European counterparts, but has participated in games in Indonesia and Australia so far.
Another reason for these pre-season tours is to promote the club further afield, and encourage support from around the world. The brand new Juventus soccer jersey has been used in these games in the hope of increasing sales in the countries that they visit.
The 1st stop for Juventus was Indonesia. They played the ISL All Stars on 6th August where they stormed home to a 1-8 victory. This may have been an easy win, but European football is popular in Indonesia and the exposure of the team and their kits is sure to raise the clubs profile.
European football is also popular in Australia, the 2nd stop on their summer tour. Soccer is popular in Australia with many fans choosing Italian Serie A clubs, English Premier League and Spanish La Liga football teams to support. Juventus met A-League All Stars in what turned out to be a thrilling and entertaining game of soccer.
Juventus clinched a 3-2 lead after going into halftime losing 1-0. Soon after halftime Fernando Llorente equalized for Juventus, but a last spurt of action saw the game end in a goal-scoring spectacle. Tomi Juric added a 2nd for Australia before Juventus added 2 more in the closing minutes of the game to scrape a 3-2 win.
So far the Juventus home shirt has been the soccer jersey of choice but their final game in Singapore may see the Juventus away shirt 2014 2015 used. Whichever kit they use Juventus will be hoping to keep their winning record by beating Lions XII and Malaysian Super League Internationals when they play on 16th August.
These friendly games are a prelude to Serie A kickoff that is scheduled for the last weekend in August. It is hoped that these games will be great training sessions, enhancing fitness and team cohesion before the real action starts. With the advent of satellite television and Internet streaming fans in Indonesia, Singapore and Australia will be watching the action and wearing the Juventus soccer jersey in support their favorite Italian football team.
The 1st Weeks of Serie A competition
The away soccer jersey may have had little use during the pre-season tour but the Juventus away shirt 2014 2015 will be used for the teams 1st match of the season. Juventus will travel to Chievo for what is expected to be an easy run-out for the Italian Champions. Chievo just avoided relegation last season finishing in 16th position, and lost both their home and away fixtures with Juventus.
In week 2 Juventus will face Udinese at home before their 1st real test in week 3, another away fixture at AC Milan. AC Milan had a tough season last season and will be hoping to shake off those demons and prove that they are back in the title race for the 2014 2015 campaign. A win on home soil against the mighty Juventus will be just the ticket, and a great match for fans of both teams to watch.
