Partially ruined party for Paulo Dybala e Giorgio Chiellini who close their experience to Juventus with a draw at the last second: in a sold-out Allianz Stadium, the bianconeri go ahead by two goals, but let themselves come back from the Lazio of the former Maurizio Sarri.
Massimiliano Allegri’s men take the lead thanks to Dusan Vlahovicwho with his head capitalizes a nice cross of Alvaro Morata. It is then the Spanish striker himself who scores the double with a shot at the far post that cannot be missed by Strakosha.
The network signed by Patric (with the help of Alex Sandro’s paw) gives confidence to the Biancocelesti who find the 2-2 almost up. From the lost ball by Cuadrado in the Lazio half, the counterattack starts again that leads to the tap-in with an empty goal by Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.
As could have been foreseen, in the postponement of the 37th Serie A it is Lazio who take control of the game. The biancocelesti, orphans of the injured Immobile, show excellent dribbling skills. However, thanks to a great job in the interdiction phase by Juve, the axis between Luis Alberto and Milinkovic-Savic does not take off and the Capitoline are struggling to find the decisive passage.
As a cynical and practical team that it is, Juventus take advantage of every slightest mistake of the opponents and with its hyper-offensive attacking poker (Dybala, Morata, Bernardeschi and Vlahovic at the same time on the field) it makes Strakosha tremble every time it happens in its part. .
However, the bianconeri once again show a certain defensive fragility. Taking that goal seconds from the end is synonymous with a serious drop in concentration.
The most beautiful and exciting moment of Juventus-Lazio comes after just 17 minutes, when Allegri calls the first change of the match: inside de Ligt, outside Giorgio Chiellini. No injuries, no tactical choices, just the desire to dedicate the last catwalk within the walls of the Stadium to a player who made the history of the Bianconeri. Standing ovation for the captain who spends much of the game taking pictures and signing autographs for the thousands of fans who came just to pay him homage.
On the evening when all eyes were on Dybala and Chiellini, Alvaro Morata took off by providing an assist and scoring a goal. The cross that propitiates Vlahovic’s 1-0 is from a pure winger, while the cue with which he gets rid of the opposing defenders to kick at the far post is from a seasoned bomber.
