After a frustrating draw against Cagliari before the international break, Juventus had to return to victory and it was done after this match against Lazio!
After two weeks of international break, Juventus made their comeback this Saturday and hosted Lazio at the Allianz Stadium. After the 2 points stupidly lost against Cagliari, the objective was clearly to regain victory. Thiago Motta had to make do with several absences, following certain injuries and the suspension of Francisco Conceiçao.
After some possession, the bianconeri created a superb opportunity after a brilliant collective action, but Pierre Kalulu was tackled sharply. The referee didn’t say anything at the time, but after seeing the VAR, he handed out a red card to the Laziale player. However, Thiago Motta’s men will take time to take advantage of this numerical advantage. Indeed, once again, despite clear possession, the players struggle to score and are far too messy in front of goal. But at the end of the match, Juan Cabal causes an own goal and delivers the stadium!
And it is with this score of 1-0 that this match will end. Juventus wins this meeting and 3 very important points. Eyes are now on the match against Stuttgart in the Champions League.
⏱️ DONE! Juventus regains victory in the league and wins against Lazio! ✅⚪️⚫️ pic.twitter.com/cmEXvA1uDq
