Juventus hosted Genoa this Sunday. Adrien Rabiot’s team did no better than a draw (0-0, 29th day of Serie A).
Defeated by Naples (2-1) and held in check by Atalanta (2-2) during the last two days of Serie A, Juventus had the opportunity to return to success this Sunday, with the reception of Genoa. But against this mid-table team, the Old lady wasn’t able to score, let alone win. As a result, she conceded a draw (0-0), synonymous with the third match in a row without success in the championship.
The Turinese, however, dominated in terms of ball possession, with an average of more than 65% over the entire game. During the first act, they tried their luck seven times, with only one shot on target, one less than Genoa. Chilly, the visitors remained huddled in their camp in the second half and did not shoot once.
Rabiot does not shine, Vlahovic sent off
But their tactic worked and they left Turin with a point. Adrien Rabiot did not shine on the Turin side and was replaced an hour into the game (58th). Dusan Vlahovic received two yellows at the end of the match, synonymous with red and expulsion.
In the provisional ranking, Juventus could well fall behind AC Milan who have as many points as them (59) before facing Hellas Verona this Sunday. As for Genoa, it is guaranteed to retain its twelfth place.
