Full match report to follow….
5 Positives:
1. Paulo Dybala – Another game, another goal. Dogged determination throughout, great delivery on the set-pieces, relentless running and brilliantly taken goal.
2. Claudio Marchisio – Completed 90% of his passes and kept the team moving forward. Tackled, harried, passed and bossed the midfield. A silent hero
3. Allegri subs in Sandro… – It might have been related to Evra being injured but it seemed like a tactical choice ….and it paid off. Sandro’s mix of pace and strength, combined with his tendancy to fire crosses in whenever he can, certainly made the difference.
4. 3 Points – It may have been a so-so game but three points are all that matter today. A solid if not spectacular performance and a result to build on considering we just won two league games in a row for the first time this season.
5. Leapfrogging Milan – Juve are up to 6th, overtaking Milan and just 6 points away from the top of the table. There’s hope yet.
