On being at the top of the standings, Juventus left two valuable points in the “battle” for the title. He was playing with ten from the 18th minute due to Milik’s dismissal.
Juventus were coming off a four-game winning streak and a 16-match unbeaten run (last loss to Sassuolo on 9/23). She had moved to the top of the standings and wanted to continue this race to the top, but Emboli put a brake on her.
Of course, in order to do this, Milik’s dismissal from the 18th minute was also necessary for a very inclined marking with the caps on Cherin, which forced the “Big Lady” to play with a numerical disadvantage for more than 70 minutes of the match.
Nevertheless, it was better in the match and took the lead with Vlahovic scoring his 11th goal of the year in the 50th minute when, after a corner, the ball did not leave the Empoli area and the Serbian who saw it in front of him executed for 1-0 . However, fatigue began to weigh on the legs of Allegri’s players and in the 70th minute, Emboli equalized with Baltanci making a long-range shot that caught Szégni by surprise.
1-1 remained until the end with Juventus remaining at the top with two points difference from Inter but also with two games more, while Emboli remained in the penultimate position of the standings but got a psychological boost in view of the difficult continuation.
