Juventus Lecce 2-1, Allegri finds Vlahovic and the championship victory after more than a month

Smiles and tears at the Stadium, for a Juventus that returns to winning ways after more than a month in the league, finds Vlahovic but loses De Sciglio due to a bad injury with a cruciate ligament injury. The bianconeri beat Lecce 2-1 (still quint from bottom) and take an important step in the Champions League, but struggle more than expected and at times even suffer from a courageous and well-organized Lecce on the pitch by Baroni. Juve play the game, but then mess it up with the usual penalty given, take the lead again and in the final they have more than one chance to close it but also give Lecce more than one chance to equalize. It all happened in the first half, two goals disallowed for offside by Ceesay at the start and then by Miretti, Juventus took the lead after 15 minutes with Paredes’ first goal in the Juve shirt, with a free-kick that bypasses the barrier and surprises Falcone. Lecce remains in the game and when De Sciglio comes out he often finds Cuadrado still cold out of position on the right, and sinks the shot.

Second consecutive penalty caused by Danilo (who then also hits a full post in the Lecce area), for a rather clear hand ball in the area, Ceesay signs the 1-1 and imitates Lukaku’s controversial celebration in the Italian Cup. However, Juve have the merit of the immediate reaction, with Kostic finding Vlahovic in the middle of the area with a perfect cross. Impregnable shot by the Serbian who finds the goal in Serie A 84 days after the last time, breaking an almost inexplicable fast of 773 minutes. A liberation which, however, does not lead to the long-awaited tranquility, because Juve fail several match points but in the final they risk very big with Ceesay’s header just off, to beat Szczesny. Not even Chiesa and Pogba entering the field from the bench put the result on the safe side, despite the first flashes of champion play for the Frenchman after the injury, but playing time always reduced
