Juventus suffers its very first defeat of the season. The Bianconeri lost with a score of 1 goal to 0 against a very attractive VFB Stuttgart and a Juventus in difficulty, particularly with the absences of its stars.
The first hiccup of the season for Juventus is here. This Tuesday evening, the Bianconeri hosted VFB Stuttgart for the 3rd day of the Champions League. Against a very attractive German team, Juve encountered a lot of difficulties by leaving the ball to their opponent and playing counterattacks. An ineffective tactic for Thiago Motta’s men and even the wingers Kenan Yildiz and Francisco Conceiçao showed waste during the game. Dominant, VFB Stuttgart created several dangerous chances such as a header from Undav perfectly released by Mattia Perin. In the absence of suspended Michele Di Gregorio, he delayed the deadline for a very long time despite a goal from Deniz Undav logically refused at the start of his period.
If Kenan Yildiz tried, Juventus was never really able to shake Alexander Nübel’s net. Worse, it was the Bundesliga team which took the initiative before obtaining a penalty following a foul by Danilo on an intervention that was not controlled at all. A penalty from Frenchman Enzo Millot, released by Perin at the end of the match with a magnificent horizontal. Excluded immediately after receiving a second yellow card, Danilo leaves his partners at 10 against 11 and unfortunately, the VFB finds the fault. In added time, El Bilal Touré takes the ball perfectly with a touch of success and presents himself against Perin. He turns on the Italian goalkeeper who can do nothing and offers his team the deserved victory, the first in this Champions League.
First defeat of the season for Motta and his men who must now turn to Milan with the Italian derby to come against Inter Milan on Sunday evening at 8:45 p.m.
