The Bianconeri never found the fault against Samp ‘on Monday, at the end of the 2nd day (0-0).
Juventus, without Angel di Maria injured, did not find the solution on the lawn of Sampdoria Genoa (0-0), Monday at the conclusion of the 2nd day of Serie A, displaying their offensive limits before receiving AS Rome next Saturday. Adrien Rabiot, holder despite the uncertainties still surrounding his future by the end of the transfer window on September 1, believed he was the bianconero savior. But the goal of the French midfielder, on a back pass from Dusan Vlahovic, was refused after intervention by the VAR for a prior offside from the Serb (65th).
Without the rookie Di Maria, who had brought a bit of fantasy to the Turin game during the initial victory over Sassuolo (3-0), Juve generally struggled to put the pace, despite the desire for Filip Kostic for his first tenure on the left flank. The ex-Frankfurt winger notably had the match point in added time but stumbled on Emil Audero (90th + 3).
Reinforcement in the transfer window for Juve?
Juan Cuadrado also had a great opportunity at the start of the game but his mule strike also remained in the gloves of the Genoese goalkeeper (15th). The “Old Lady”, also deprived of Leonardo Bonucci and Wojciech Szczesny (in addition to Pogba and Chiesa), also had her share of scares, especially at the start of the match with a shot on the bar by Mehdi leris (6th) then a goal against his camp missed by a breath by Vlahovic (18th).
While waiting for a possible reinforcement from the transfer window (the Memphis Depay track remains mentioned), the Turin coach “Max” Allegri has a week to give ideas to his Bianconeri before receiving Roma, led by the former leader of the Juve Paulo Dybala.
