After the start of the new season, Inter Milan, who had been at the top of the table for a long time, failed to beat Genoa in the 18th round of the league, allowing Juventus to narrow the difference, and in the 19th round of the league this week, Inter Milan still performed poorly, relying on the last moment of the stunner, it was difficult to defeat Verona, and one more game extended the lead over Juventus to 5 points, this match day Juventus debuted, went to challenge Salernitana away, the two teams just met in the Coppa Italia, when Juventus won a 6-1 victory, which is why fans are unanimously optimistic about their victory before the game and continue to catch up with Inter MilanHowever, Allegri was lightly defeated and sent a number of young players to the starter, which directly led to Juve's poor performance and fell into a backward situation early, but fortunately, Uncle Yu adjusted in time to reverse the decline, and Iling's goal and Vlahovic's stunner helped Juve defeat Salernitana 2-1!
After two days, Allegri still used the 3-5-2 system, with Szczesny coming on as the starting goalkeeper, Gatti, Bremer and Danilo in the back, Weah, McKennie, Caviglia, Rabiot and Kostic lined up in midfield, and Vlahovic partnering Yildiz in attack.
Juventus, who sent a number of youngsters to the starting lineup, obviously did not have the dominance of the last game, although they had a certain advantage in possession in the first half, they did not really form a threatening attack, and they were not able to complete a shot on the target, and the game just started with Yilmaz on the left side and forced the ball into the Salernitana penalty area, and fell to the ground after confronting the defenders, but the referee did not say anything.
Salernitana responded three minutes later, and although their low cross from the left was snatched by Juventus for the first point, the ball was still at the home team's feet, but unfortunately the volley in the box could not get past Szczesny's ten fingers, and the latter fell to the ground to hold the ball down the ground.
Before the end of the half, Salernitana's long pass from the back directly penetrated the Juventus backline, and Maggiore, who quickly advanced in the middle, received a cross pass from his teammates in the big penalty area, and shot directly into the far corner, although Szczesny flew to save, but did not touch the ball, Salernitana, who was in the bottom of Serie A, returned to the midfield dressing room with a 1-0 lead.
In the rematch, Allegri replaced the underperforming Kostic and Gatti with Rugani and Iling, and Maggiore, who broke the deadlock for Salernitana in the 53rd minute, brought down Rabiot in defense and received the second yellow card of the game, and the referee sent him off with a red card, giving Juve the advantage in numbers.
In the 65th minute, Uncle Awkward's substitution finally paid off, Weah sent a cross from the right, and Vlahovic, who was outflanked in the middle, was unable to touch the ball, but substitute Iling flanked it at the back post and sent the ball into the Salernitana goal, allowing the two teams to return to the same line 1-1.
In the 91st minute of injury time, Vlahovic received a cross from his teammates and shook his head to help Juventus beat Salernitana 2-1, and got three points at the last moment, which also made Inter Milan happy, and the difference between the two teams was still 2 points!
