Juventus, with one of the most convincing and serious performances in 2024, beat Fiorentina with a “poor” 1-0 showing that they deserved something better, but they deserve a place at the top of Serie A
It has been a long time since Juventus made such a good start in a match. He managed from the first minute to limit the spaces for “Viola” even before he arrived in the one and only goal by Gatti in the 21st minute, after Kostic’s header and Bremer’s header on the post, were preceded by a disallowed Vlahovic goal in the 12th minute for offside and a Biraghi header on the post seven minutes later! In the continuation of the phase, Bremier sent the ball into the net but was in an offside position!
In the 32nd minute, another Juventus goal was disallowed! Chiesa’s cross, McKenney’s header – a pass and Vlahovic’s nice projection in the net, but from the VAR it appeared that the American was in an offside position before giving the pass!
In the 2nd half, the Piedmontese team was once again superior, missing several chances for a goal that would have relieved their nerves!
In the end, the 1-0 remained and with it the stable position of Juventus in the top 4 leading to the next season’s Champions League
