The Turin derby gave birth to a logical draw. Jostled by a Torino team applied defensively, and who might even have deserved victory with a little more talent and success when approaching the opposing goal, Juventus, who nevertheless led once morest the run of play thanks to a goal by Matthijs de Ligt, was joined following an achievement by Andrea Belotti (1-1). In the standings, the players of Massimiliano Allegri, still 4th, remain at a distance from the podium and are more than ever threatened by Atalanta, which has three points less but two games behind.
If they have retained their invincibility in the “Della Mole derby”, which has been running since 2015, Dusan Vlahovic’s teammates did not really put themselves in the best position before playing their Champions League round of 16 once morest Villarreal next Tuesday. Deprived of Bonucci, Chiellini and Danilo in defence, the Zebras were initially undermined by a team that did not come as an expiatory victim at the Allianz Stadium.

Vlahovic annihilated by Bremer
Facing their illustrious neighbour, the Granata put their foot on the ball, and often asphyxiated Juve in their own half of the field, thanks to well-coordinated pressing. On several occasions, Wojiech Szczesny had to work to prevent his team from conceding the opener (6th, 9th). And on a corner, it was finally the Toro who was trapped, on a header perfectly placed by De Ligt, well found by Juan Cuadrado (1-0, 13th).
Apart from an overly cross shot from Adrien Rabiot (11th), and a powerful shot from Paolo Dybala (23rd), Torino goalkeeper Vanja Milinkovic-Savic did not really have any fears in this match where Juventus fell asleep back from the locker room. After seeing his Argentinian captain leave on injury, probably not very serious, following a long shot (54th), the Old Lady paid for his lack of initiative, conceding the equalizer on a recovery from the left of Belotti at the end carrying (1-1, 62nd).
If the end of the match was to the advantage of the locals, they came up once morest a solid defense during this match, embodied by the very good performance of the Brazilian Bremer, who muzzled Vlahovic and company. Enough to allow the Torino, stuck in the middle of the table, to obtain a well-deserved point. For its part, Juventus is not reassured in the race for the Champions League, which will now focus all its attention before finding Villarreal.
