Juventus secured a win over Genoa in Italy’s football league Serie A on Sunday at Allianz Stadium. Thanks to goals from Dejan Kulusevski, Alvaro Morata, and Weston McKennie, but Cristiano Ronaldo missed the net.
The Serie A champions chased the victory leading the game in the initial four minutes with a goal from Dejan Kzlusevski, followed by a second goal from Alvaro Morata in 22 minutes.
Pulling back from the right for Dejan Kulusevski’s left-foot curler from just inside the area Juan Cuadrado made Rovella dizzy with a shimmy and it didn’t take long to crack through. In the first half, Cristiano Ronaldo missed an open goal but Alvaro Morata was more precise on the rebound for Juve.
When De Ligt slipped and gave a fully free header on a corner, Scamacca grabbed the opportunity and scored a goal immediately after the restart bringing the stats to 2-1.
Genoa had a chance to equalize but Paolo Ghiglione slid back on a floating Danilo pass, helping Weston McKennie to beat the offside trap and score just two minutes after coming off the bench.
On the final whistle, the Juventus win over Genoa saw Ronaldo venting his frustration as he threw his shirt away and walked down the tunnel in anger
The results see Juventus move one spot behind second-placed AC Milan with 62 points after 30 matches.
