With a goal from Cristiano Ronaldo, Juventus improved to 2: 2 on their visit to Turin in the city derby on matchday 29 of Serie A, played at the “Olimpico” stadium.
The five-time Ballon d’Or winner saved the champions from another shocking defeat in the 79th minute. Before him, Federico Chiesa (13 ‘) had opened the scoring, but Antonio Sanabria (27’, 46 ‘), who was bypassed in winter for Betis, he made a complete turn with two goals.
In the ranking, the “Old Lady” fell to fourth place with 56 points, as did Napoli fifth. The two teams have one game down and will meet on Wednesday at Allianz Stadium. Ahead of them are Atalanta (58 points) and Milan (60 points). With a draw, Turin accumulated 24 points and was ranked 17th.
Juventus came under enormous pressure after suffering a shocking 1-0 loss at home to Benevento before the international break. Separately, Andrea Pirlo could not count on the punished Gianluigi Buffon and the coronavirus patients Leonardo Bonucci and Merich Demiral.
Arthur Melo, Weston McKenney and Paulo Dybala were eliminated from the group, after violating anti-epidemic measures during the week and meeting other people for dinner at the American’s house. This kept Pirlo’s pick to a minimum and put Danilo back in midfield. Álvaro Morata and Cristiano Ronaldo acted in the attack.
Before the derby, Torino was just one point above the relegation zone, but he certainly couldn’t find himself in it after this round. Only Wilfried Singo and Lianco were in the hospital, and in midfield Davide Nicola bet on former Juventus player Thomas Rincón and Rolando Mandragora, who remains the property of the “Old Lady”.
The “Derby della Mole” started hot and Federico Chiesa quickly opened two scoring opportunities after passes from Cristiano Ronaldo. In the first he did not strike the door from a clear position, and in the second Salvatore Sirigu killed. The Bulls responded with a dangerous diagonal kick from Rolando Mandragora, which went wide, and then Andrea Belotti demanded a penalty, but the VAR decided there was no.
This led to the 13th minute, when the champions took the lead. Chiesa did something like a double pass with Álvaro Morata, invaded the penalty area and with a precise shot opened the scoring – 1: 0 for Juventus! After the goal, Torino played with courage in front and after several good attacks reached the equalizer.
This happened in the 27th minute, when Mandragora shot from the play, Wojciech Szczesny shot with one hand, but also Arnaldo Sanabria with his head from the goal area sent the ball under the crossbar 1: 1! At the end of the half Morata failed twice to give Juve another breakthrough.
The Spanish first intercepted Juan Quadrado’s center with his head, but Sirigu saved. Later Alex Sandro sent a pass on the ground to the forward, but at the last moment the goalkeeper overtook it and caught it.
Shortly after the resumption of the game, Turin reached a total change. Sanabria crossed a pass from Deyan Kulushevski, entered the penalty area and with a shot in the corner from Schesni scored for the second time in the match – 2: 1!
The Bianconeri immediately launched an attack and a great shot from Chiesa bounced off a local player and went to the corner. Later, Ronaldo towered over everyone and hit his head, but Sirigu with a superb one-handed save. After 70 minutes of play, Cristiano returned to shoot his head, but inches from the crossbar.
A quarter of an hour before the end, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner again failed to draw. Quadrado fired a pass into the goal area, where Ronaldo intercepted, but within the out. In the 79th minute, Cristiano still scored 2: 2! After a cross from a free-kick, Giorgio Chiellini intercepted and the ball landed on the Portuguese, who could not miss point-blank range.
The situation was reviewed by the VAR for an ambush for a long time, but in the end the goal was recognized and Juventus managed to level. This moment inspired the champions and soon after Rodrigo Bentancourt hit the crossbar with a powerful shot. In the 83rd minute Ronaldo intercepted with his head, but weakly and the goalkeeper caught.
A minute before the end of regulation time, Sanabria could have scored a hat-trick, but Honest Cellars. In the aftermath, the Polish goalkeeper saved Juventus from defeat after rejecting a shot from Daniele Baselli from a foul and the Derby della Mole finished 2: 2.
