Good operation for Juventus who won on Sunday evening at Fiorentina (0-1, 11th day of Serie A) and who took the opportunity to consolidate their second place in the standings.
The day after AC Milan’s surprise defeat against Udinese (0-1), Juventus knew they could get a good deal in the event of a convincing result. This Sunday, the partners of Adrien Rabiot wearing the captain’s armband, won on the pitch of Fiorentina (0-1, 11th day of Serie A), thanks to the only goal from Fabio Miretti.
It was from the tenth minute of play that the young twenty-year-old midfielder found the loophole to open the scoring in favor of the Old lady, well served as it was by Filip Kostic. Perfect realism for Juventus where this will be the only strike of the first period (on target or not). Opposite, Florence tried a lot, but their multiple chances and positive possession of the ball (73rd) did nothing before the break.
The hole is made
No more after half-time. The appearance of the second act was also identical to that of the first. Plethora of shots for the Viola, but far too few shots on target (1 out of thirteen in the second period). And on the Turin side, a well-defended cage until the final whistle. As a result, Juventus is second in the ranking, two units behind Inter Milan, but above all four ahead of AC Milan (3rd). As for Fiorentina, they have a third consecutive setback in Serie A and remain eighth, one point behind Europe.
