Lazio have taken an early lead against Juventus at the Allianz Stadium, with Joaquín Correa punishing Dejan Kulusevski’s mistake.
The Swedish international tried to find the backpass to Merih Demiral, but wasn’t aware that he was actually gifting the ball to Correa, who did well to score.
The Argentine forward picked the ball up in the final third and runs at Demiral, and he cleverly uses the step-over to make space before cutting to his right, before he cuts his shot back through the legs of the Turkish defender.
