She hadn’t succeeded Juventusshe succeeded (involuntarily). Lazio: at the Allianz Stadium in Turin, in the first round of the eighth round of Serie A, the Bianconeri prevailed thanks to an own goal by Mario Gila after 86 minutes of play. However, a deserved victory for Thiago Motta’s team, who return to success in the championship after having besieged the Lazio of Baroni for almost the entire match. The match was inevitably conditioned, in any case, by Romagnoli’s expulsion in the 24th minute for a foul on Kalulu.
The words of Thiago Motta in the press conference
“Important and deserved victory against a team that plays very well. It’s not easy for anyone to face Lazio. We found an important goal, but with some well done plays. Those crosses are very difficult to defend, but other times we made crosses easier to defend. Complicated match, but an important and deserved victory.”
Top and flop for Juve according to TMW
Kalulu 6.5 – Not making Bremer regret it is really, really complicated, but the former Milan player also plays a good match against Lazio and also does what is not usually asked of a defender: getting Romagnoli sent off for a foul on a clear scoring opportunity, inevitably changing the inertia of the race.
Cabal 7 – He keeps good guard over Isaksen, who makes him feel his studs already in the 18th minute. Proactive even in the offensive phase: don’t ask him to shoot from outside the area (the ball he kicked in the 46th minute is probably still flying over the globe), but he has the great merit of propitiating Mario Gila’s own goal which decides the contest.
Vlahovic 5.5 – You can’t tell him that he’s out of Juve’s game or that he’s not trying. Far from it. He fights like a lion with the biancoceleste defense, looking for both personal flair and finishing for his teammates. But the facts speak for themselves… He kicks out the free kick won by Kalulu when Romagnoli was given a red card, misses the target with his header following a pass from Locatelli and controls poorly in the area following an invitation from Douglas Luiz. The crossbar hit in the 57th minute with Provedel beaten was sensational. And we could continue.
