Moise Kean and Riccardo Sottil retake Juventus: it’s still an HCL tie
Another comeback draw, and overtaking rivals jumps.
Juventus forced to another draw, the 11th in these first 18 days of the championship, and forced to suffer moreover twice the comeback of Fiorentina at Allianz Stadium. A result, that of 2-2, which allows the Viola to remain level on points with their great rivals, still unbeaten in Serie A but now 9 points behind Atalanta and Napoli who lead the standings.
The evening for Juventus seemed to start well, with the booed Vlahovic immediately dangerous with a header. Fiorentina did not just watch and tried to scare Di Gregorio, but on 20' left too much space for Thuram, who had no difficulty in cutting through the Viola defense ball and foot, appearing all alone in the box and putting the hosts ahead. The reaction of the guests è entrusted initially to Gudmundsson, who does not close a potentially very dangerous action, but above all to the feared former Moise Kean: è just him at 38' to frame in the net a deep cross shot by Adli from the left.
The match remains lively, and even before halftime Vlahovic on one side and Locatelli on the other come close to a new lead. To find it è forò once again Juventus already at 48', when Koopmeiners looks deep for Thuram, lucky on the rebound but very good at beating De Gea once again. Kean tries to imitate him, but his one-two does not come. On the other side è good Comuzzo to save everything on Yildiz.
Palpitating end of the match: De Gea saves Fiorentina with a miracle on Gatti, on the other side Juventus seems to contain the opponents’ increasingly chaotic attempts. Then at 87'87' Cambiaso slips on Ikoné pressure, the crossbar finds Kean adept at dribbling in the middle of three Bianconeri jerseys and serving Sottil who unloads the ball at the first post under the crossbar. Yet another Bianconeri draw, with the Serie A defeat box remaining unblemished but the top of the standings getting further and further away.
