Greece Verona took the lead with Juventus.

Then Dejan Kulusevski was substituted and equalized.

With a beautiful solo performance, the Swede saved points for Juventus in the 1-1 match.

Surprisingly, Hellas Verona took the lead against Juventus in the 60th minute. Coach Andrea Pirlo then decided to put Dejan Kulusevski on the field in an attempt to turn the game around.

And it was a decision Pirlo did not regret.

“Terribly impressive”

In the 77th minute, the visitors came in from the right after poor defense. Kulusevski ducked into the penalty area, swung in and out on defense, and placed the ball beautifully in the far corner.

– This is how the image of a match is rotated and this should look like a jump. Enthusiasm, commitment, look for the ball and play carefully. A terribly impressive jump, says C More expert Hasse Backe.

It was the Swede’s second goal in four league games with Juventus. He also scored in the series premiere against Sampdoria.

Warning after a fight

However, Kulusevski’s draw was the last goal of the match. Juventus scored a goal towards the end and had several dangerous scoring chances in the final minutes, but failed to get the ball into the goal.

Dejan Kulusevski was also warned in extra time after arguing with the captain of the Verona team, Davide Faraoni.
