THE MATCH – Juventus broke the deadlock immediately with Dybala. Wandering ball in the Emilia area, the Argentine kicks with his left and bags: 1-0. After the immediate advantage, the bianconeri slow down and leave the field, ball and confidence to the neroverdi. Sassuolo has time to reorganize and take the game in hand for a good half hour. It is played in the Juve half of the pitch and the draw, which arrives at 24 ‘, is not a surprise. Traore draws the joker, thanks to a deviation by Zakaria: ball at the intersection, 1-1. In the second half, Juve charge head-on with continuity. Opportunities for Allegri’s formation abound and only a series of interventions by Pegolo denied the Torino goal. At 72 ‘, Juve manages to waste 3 chances in 5 seconds: McKennie hits his head and Pegolo saves, DeLigt hits the post from 1 meter, Bonucci fails to bag from 30 centimeters. When extra time seems inevitable, Vlahovic solves the puzzle. The Serbian, alone, escapes to the left wing and focuses, manages to shoot and find a providential deviation from Tressoldi: Pegolo surrenders, Juve wins 2-1.
