It’s three consecutive goalless draws in Serie A for Juventuswho also on Saturday afternoon in the big match at the Stadium against Napoli recorded a 0-0 in their path in this championship. A very strong match, with two 3-0s in the first two rounds, the Old Lady then slowed down in the following rounds of Serie A, getting stuck against three Xs without goals.
Saturday’s match against Napoli is just the latest, previously the team coached by Motta had already stopped at 0-0 in Empoli the week before, and also in the previous round against De Rossi’s Roma. Three goalless outings that have raised some alarm in the Juventus world regarding an offensive efficiency that seems to be lacking a bit this season too. And in fact, six goals scored in five games is not the loot of a great team, but at the same time, it should not be underestimated that – despite a perhaps less than brilliant start – Juve has not lost and has not even conceded a goal yet.
The goals will come in the plans of Thiago Motta, who seems the most relaxed in dealing with this situation. After all, he is the first to know that in a championship it is not possible to win all the games, and that if you can’t impose yourself, the best medicine is at least not to lose. And he also remembers well what happened at the beginning of last season in Bologna: between the fourth and sixth matchday, the rossoblù had in fact managed three goalless draws. It was 0-0 in Verona, the same result then at home with Napoli and then with Monza. From the following matchday, the rossoblù were back to winning with a peremptory 3-0 over Empoli. In the coach’s head, it is a scenario ready to repeat itself.
