Verona-Juve 2-0 at 45 ‘: sensational double by Simeone in 3’! Cross of Dybala | First page

Three points or open crisis. There are no half measures whatsoever for the Juventus by Massimiliano Allegri, ibusy this afternoon all 18 in the second postponement of the’11th matchday of Serie A, after Atalanta-Lazio: at the Bentegodi Stadium in Verona in front of the coriaceo Hellas of the poisoned ex Igor Tudor, second to Pirlo last season and former Juventus player, as well as holder of the best attack since he arrived in Veneto. After six victories and a draw in a row between the championship and the Champions League, which seemed to have returned the old Juve, the sudden and unexpected knockout on Wednesday night at home against Sassuolo arrived, followed on an equal footing against Inter: now the bianconeri have collapsed at -13 from the top occupied by Milan and Naples and -4 from fourth place and they have no choice but to win, to try to climb up quickly. The Scaligeri, for their part, are a tough team, which at home has beaten Rome and Lazio: only three points behind Juve.
