Sampaoli set to liven up Champions League group stage - Football


MILAN (Reuters) - Jorge Sampaoli's unique brand of whirlwind football is set to be unleashed on an unsuspecting Champions League when his Sevilla team face Juventus on Wednesday. The Europa League champions kicked off their La Liga campaign with a 6-4 win over Espanyol and on Saturday, after failing to turn up for the first half hour, hit back to beat Las Palmas 2-1 with a 94th minute winner. Sevilla's visit will be an interesting test for the Serie A champions who have won their first three league matches of the season and are finding little resistance domestically. Juventus coach Allegri is already worried about the amount of praise that his new look team are getting. "Everyone says that Juventus will win everything, the championship, the Coppa Italia and the Champions League and that doesn't do us any good, because we lose our balance and sense of perspective," he said.
