Cagliari – After the scorching disappointment in the Champions League, Juventus returns to run in the championship and does it by beating Cagliari 1-0 at the Unipol Domus. Animated by a huge desire for redemption, the guys from Thiago Motta play with determination and, at times, with quality. Vlahovic thinks about the game, preferred to Kolo Muani and returned owner almost two months after the last time. A weekend, therefore, more than favorable for Juve, now permanently fourth, also thanks to the contemporary defeats of Fiorentina and Milan and like Lazio. For the bianconeri, the game is already downhill after just twelve minutes of the first half. Mina is surprised by the retropaga of Adopo and is naively anticipated by Vlahovic: the Serbian invested towards the door, dribbles Caprile and deposits the 1-0 ball on the net. Juve does not stop and takes advantage of an inaccurate Cagliari and still stunned by the disadvantage immediately. The Sardinian formation is struggling to overcome the half of the field and is kept afloat by the Parades of Caprile. At 22 ‘the former Napoli goalkeeper denies the goal to Yildiz, covering the mirror of the door to be released: at 29’ Caprile parade also with the foot the subsequent attempt by the Turkish playmaker.
Juve still dangerous in the 35th minute, when Conceicao in front of the door cannot intercept McKennie’s assist. An innocual conclusion with the Mancino of Zortea, however, is the only ring of Cagliari during the first fraction. In the second half the rhythm of the hosts grows, also thanks to the entrance from the bench of a perky Luvumbo. A more tired Juve now grants the game ball to the opponents and then act on the counterattack. At 78 ‘Vlahovic launched to the net is seen denying the brace from the exit of Caprile: the Serbian, unbalanced at the time of the shot from Luperto, strongly protests at the address of the referee Columbus. The guests, however, manage to grant few clear occasions to the Sardinians, whose best chance is Coman’s shot at 83 ‘slightly high. In the recovery Yildiz and Mbangula touch the doubling. Juve thus conquers the fourth consecutive victory in Serie A: Cagliari, on the other hand, returns to lose at home and is nailed to fifteenth place
