A brace and an assist: Vlahović single-handedly defeats Salernitana

Slowly but surely, Juventus is coming back. After bad news on the financial front, 15 points deduction, a devastating 5-1 against Napoli and 3-3 vs Atalanta, the Old Lady managed to defeat Lazio in Coppa Italia and tonight they secured a comfortable win in Salernitana (3-0). Unlike most of their games, which end in a 1-0 result and are hard to watch, Massimiliano Allegri’s men scored their goals on time and finished the game without any trouble at all. It was important for the Turin club to get their main striker Dušan Vlahović back in form, and the Serb did it tonight, with a brace and assist. With this win, Juventus moved to 10th place, but 12 points between the club and the sixth position, which leads to Europa League is still too far. 93 – Dusan Vlahovic has scored 93% of his penalties taken in Serie A (14 out of 15): since his debut, the best percentage among all players with at least 15 penalties taken.

In the 26th minute, Nicolussi Caviglia made a clumsy challenge on Miretti, who felt to the ground as soon as he sensed a boot touching his leg, and a penalty was rewarded. Angel Di Maria realized that Vlahović needed to finally score his first goal for the club since October 2022 and agreed to let him shoot. The Serb was precise and Juve were leading 1-0. Just as the first half was about to end, the visitors scored an easy goal (again). Vlahovic wanted to shoot, but he was not so precise. Salernitana defenders didn’t saw Filip Kostić lurking around in the penalty area, the ball came to him and he passed it near Ochoa for 2-0.GOOOOOL DA JUVENTUS!Kostic aumenta a vantagem da Juve em Salermo:Salernitana 0 x 2 Juventus pic.twitter.com/0mTqAeIAZn— Goleada Euro (@goleada_euro) February 7, 2023 Salernitana 0x3 Juventus⚽️ Dusan Vlahovic (2)🥾 Nicolò Fagioli🏆 Série A pic.twitter.com/qiChTdWfLo— Goal_Futgols (@ma10868306) February 7, 2023 Juventus continued with its timely goals as Vlahović scored his second goal of the match in the 47th minute and that was it from this game.
