The Venice scares Juventus, who ultimately save themselves with a penalty awarded by Candle (naive handball) in full recovery and converted by Vlahovic. A 2-2 that doesn’t make anyone happy: the Bianconeri get yet another disappointing draw, on the opposite side the Orange-Greens honor their history (today the club’s 117th anniversary), but given how things had turned out they were dreaming of a coup in Turin, which fades in a way that smacks of mockery.
In the afternoon Atalanta won again, in Cagliari with the signing of Zaniolo: the Goddess doesn’t stop dreaming and rises to 37 points. In the 6pm match, however, Napoli, despite going behind in the result due to Thauvin’s goal, comeback and respond by winning 3 to 1, thus returning to -2 from the top. To stay in the Scudetto fight, tomorrow it will be the turn of Fiorentina who play at 3pm in Bologna, while on Monday evening there will be the big match between Lazio and Inter (the Nerazzurri also have the match against Fiorentina to make up for probably in the spring).
