Exit the dams for the knockout stages in the Champions League, eliminated on penalties by Empoli in the quarter -final of the Italian Cup a few days later, Juventus suffered a new blow on Sunday evening. While she received the Atalanta Bergame, the “old lady” was severely spanked and lost on the score without appeal of 0-4 (28th day of Serie A). An almost historical result.
Because according to statistics, this is the worst result at Juventus at home since 1967. The Turin club had not lost at home on such a score since the 1967-68 season and a 0-4 defeat then inflicted by its neighbor and Rival of the Torino. In its history, the “Juve” conceded four times (counting that of Sunday) a 0-4 setback at home, the other two dating back to July 1948 against Pro Patria and October 1955 against Fiorentina.
A defeat among the worst in the history of Juventus
However, he arrived at Bianconeri to lose with them on a larger gap, but each time with at least one goal scored on their side. As the site has listed
“Onefootball”this was the case in 1943 against Vicenza and in 1940 against Tiestina, on the identical score of 2-6. There was also this slap received during a visit to AC Milan in 1950 (1-7) and finally this setback still also concluded by a 1-7 against Pro Vercelli in 1922.
Suffice to say that the result of the men of Thiago Motta has not passed at all on the side of the supporters, especially in ten days from the end of the championship, the title seems practically out of reach. Juventus thus points to fourth row in Serie A, but now with nine points behind Inter Milan, the current leader. The mission of Bianconeri is simple: do everything to qualify for the next Champions League. And it will not be an easy task.
