TURIN. They are already in league form Juventus and Atlalanta which, despite the great heat, give life to a good friendly at the Allianz Stadium reopened to the public after a year and a half. Dybala’s first goal, then Muriel’s equalizer and the new advantage with Bernardeschi of Juventus, who at the end closes the game with Morata at 3-1. Smiles Massimiliano Allegri, who remedies the defeat in Barcelona, but even Gian Piero Gasperini has nothing to worry about: the two teams are moving well and, waiting for the transfer market, they are candidates for another season as protagonists. It is an attacking Juve that Allegri fielded in the last friendly match before the official debut. The Juventus coach sends Chiesa, Ronaldo, Dybala and Berbardeschi onto the field, with Ramsey in the control room and De Ligt teaming up in defense with Bonucci and Cuadrado on the wing. In Atalanta the striker is Muriel, with Pasalic and Ilicic to support him, while in defense the former Demiral is immediately on the field.
The number ten Juventus player, returning after an injury that forced him to miss the first friendlies, is the great observed among the Bianconeri. The Argentine, close to renewal with Juventus after being put on the market last summer and with the captain’s armband on his arm, moves well, but the first chance is for Atalantino Gosens, who splinters the crossbar in the 4 ‘ left on Muriel’s touch. The thrill precedes the Juventus joy (8 ‘), with Dybala beating Musso in a crash after a good combination with Ronaldo and Chiesa on the restart. Gasperini’s team feels the blow but it doesn’t take long to put the game back in balance: at 17 ‘Muriel scores a 1-1 penalty that Abisso concedes for a foul by Bonucci on Freuler. It is a good moment for Atalanta, who shortly thereafter almost doubled with Muriel and then with Ilicic, but Juve again took the lead in the 38th minute with a Bernardeschi euro-goal from distance.
The approximately 11 thousand spectators of the Allianz Stadium, Green pass in his pocket and mask on his face, grant the standing ovation to Dybala, replaced at 8 ‘of the second half. Chiesa also exits and Morata and Kulusevski enter, immediately after Atalanta also starts the rotations to make the players catch their breath. The thermometer in Turin is close to thirty degrees and the friendly match has only the result, as evidenced by a few too many forbidden hits and the warning for Djimsiti’s protests. He is not very satisfied when Ronaldo is called back on the bench, who immediately slips into the locker room. Giorgio Chiellini celebrates his 37 years on the field from the 25 ‘of the second half, who starts again immediately closing every space at Atalanta. Among the Bergamo players Pessina, with his insertions, is always dangerous, until Morata’s goal at the end, which closes the game at 3-1. In a week it gets serious.
