Football Italia

Although it wasn’t an overwhelming performance, Juventus achieved a 3-0 victory against Genoa behind closed doors thanks to two goals from Dusan Vlahovic, who was named Man of the Match.

Juventus defeated Genoa 3-0 on Saturday in Marassi with minimal effort. In the first half, although we had the upper hand in possession, we were unable to create many chances. However, shortly after the start of the second half, Vlahovic calmly converted a penalty kick from a handball by former Juventus defender Connie de Winter, breaking the deadlock in the match. From this moment on, Juventus had complete control of the match, and Vlahovic scored again in the 55th minute. At this time, Genoa’s veteran defender Mattia Bagni was given a lot of space, resulting in a strong finish. Furthermore, Portuguese winger Francisco Conceição scored his first Serie A goal in added time, replacing the substitute Nico González.

Genoa vs Juventus – Player ratings

Genoa (3-5-2)

Gollini 6; de Winter 4.5, Bagni 5, Vázquez 5; Zanoli 5.5 (86′ Sabelli not scored), Frendrup 6, Badelli 6 (26′ Bohinen 5.5), Miletti 6 (69′ Casa 5.5), Ahanoglu 5 (69) min Matturo 5.5); Pinamonti 5.5, Vitinha 5 (69 min Anchie 5.5). Director: Gilardino 5

Genoa’s best player: Miletti 6

There were no players in Genoa that particularly stood out, and the overall performance was poor. Il Grifone finally showed a reaction in the second half, but it was already too late. At the very least, Miletti would like to prove his worth against Juventus and aim to return next season.

Genoa lowest rating: De Winter 4.5

Another former Juventus player. His hand started a second-half goal rush for Juventus. It was another bad day for Genoa this week.

Director: Gilardino 5

Genoa simply couldn’t create attacking chances. The first half wasn’t bad, but in the second half it completely fell apart. The absence of Gudmundsson and Retegui was very significant.

Juventus (4-2-3-1)

Perrin 6.5; Danilo 6, Karl 6.5 (74′ Savona 6), Bremer 6.5, Louie 6 (74′ Cambiaso 6); McKennie 6 (62′ Douglas Ruiz 6), Fagioli 6.5; Nico Gonzalez 6 (62′ Conceição 7) ), Koop Meinels 7, Yildiz 6 (74 minutes Thuram 6.5); Vlahovic 7.5. Director: Motta 6.5

Juventus’ best player: Vlahovic 7.5

He silenced his critics with his goal performance. The second goal was spectacular, a quick and strong finish. This is exactly what Juventus expected from him. After not scoring for a month, he has now scored four goals in six games in Serie A this season, making him joint top scorer with Matteo Letegui and Christian Pulisic.

Director: Thiago Motta 6.5

Juventus’ performance in the first half was clearly unsatisfactory. The tempo was slow, there were a lot of mistakes, and the play was similar to Juventus’ recent games. Without De Winter’s hand, the game might have played out differently, but Juventus made the most of their chances and ultimately dominated for 90 minutes. Next we will face RB Leipzig in the Champions League.
