In the UEFA Champions League this week, Juventus unexpectedly won the first place in the group, but back to the Serie A arena, the Bianconeri’s good fortune did not continue. In the away game against Venice, Juventus was equalized by their opponents in the lead, and the three-game winning streak ended in all competitions. In addition, the team’s attacking core Dybala was injured, which made Juventus worse. Juventus coach Allegri was also very disappointed. After the team was scored to tie the goal, he complained to the bench.
After the start of the new season, Juventus has been in an adjustment period. Although it ranked first in the UEFA Champions League with a record of 5 wins and 1 loss, winning the first place in the group has a huge chance. In the league, Juventus’ results have been tepid, with no victories in the first four rounds. Although it rebounded briefly afterwards, the points have always been outside the top four, and the difference with the fourth place has also widened to 7 points.
In this round, Juventus played away against the newly promoted Venice team. From the comparison of the strength of the two teams, Juventus is in an absolute advantage. From the historical record, Juventus has a huge advantage. The two teams have played against each other 24 times in Serie A, with Juventus winning 16 times and Venice winning 2 times.
After the start of the game, Juve’s offense was not very active, but the weaker Venice played very actively. As the game progressed, Juventus took the initiative to attack, and Morata’s goal followed. However, in the second half of the game, the situation changed suddenly, Venice’s confrontation was stronger, and the players’ mentality was more positive. And this positive attitude eventually led to the scoring. A long shot from the top of the arc in the penalty area equalized for Venice, and in the end Venice also tied with Juventus at home.
This draw is a disaster for Juventus. The team’s three consecutive victories in all competitions have ended, and the point difference with fifth-place Fiorentina has increased. Once the fourth-ranked Atalanta wins this round, Juventus is away from fourth-placed. The point difference will be expanded to 9 points. What needs to be pointed out is that Juventus also encountered bad news in the game. The offensive core of the team, Dybala, was injured less than 12 minutes after the start of the game. Dybala is Juventus’ offensive thigh this season, and his injury has made Juventus’ weak striker even weaker.
For Juventus’s situation, coach Allegri is very anxious. Some media captured that just after Venice scored the equalizer goal, Allegri turned and complained to the bench: “We are not playing, we are not playing!”Return to Sohu to see more
