10 November 2019A three-point goal and practically nothing else for Juventus, who beat Allianz 1-0 in Milan willingly and orderly, but lacking when it comes to juice. The bianconeri take the top spot (32 points to 31) on Inter at the end of an opaque performance, in line with those of the last month. The Rossoneri look at the rankings with greater concern: 13 points, 4 from the relegation zone. And at the resumption of the championship, after the stop for the national teams, there is Napoli.

Bentancur in midfield with Pjanic and Matuidi, Bernardeschi trequartista behind Ronaldo and Higuain: these are the choices of Sarri. Pioli proposes the 4-3-3 with Calhanoglu and Suso on the sides of Piatek (the two lower themselves a lot to protect the midfield). Central Duarte with Romagnoli. Juventus in possession of the ball, but inaccurate beyond the unbelievable. Donnarumma engaged by Higuain (however in a very secluded position) and by the blow from outside Ronaldo. The conclusion from the boundary of Bernardeschi would not give him a chance, but slips very high. Much stronger when Milan managed to accelerate. Piatek in a header turns sideways; Paquetà, always with his head, engages Szczesny hard. The Polish goalkeeper also has work at the end of the quarter, when he rejects Hernandez's 25-meter lash and then opposes Piatek, almost face to face.

Juve's pressure in the second half goes up a bit. The right one around Matuidi passes near the pole. In the 55th minute a very rare event: Sarri replaces Ronaldo with Dybala, the Portuguese does not like and sticks directly into the locker room. Opportunity for Piatek, walled by Szczesny and De Ligt. The technicians reshuffle the cards: Douglas Costa for Bernardeschi and Bonaventura for Krunic. Douglas Costa immediately inspires a good plot, Matuidi sends high. Other changes: Rabiot for the injured Matuidi and Leao for Piatek. Calhanoglu commits Szczesny on a 25-meter free-kick. A couple of minutes later (77 ') Dybala triangulated with Higuain, enters the area and places it right on the post where Donnarumma cannot reach. Magnificent action, one of the rare flashes of the evening. Milan tries in the final. Szczesny is punctual on Calhanoglu's right from 20 meters. Last 5 'for Rebic (Paquetà goes out), with the task of putting balloons in the area. However, the Juventus defense has a good game. Higuain spoils the doubling from centroarea and, at the last action, Donnarumma responds great to another excellent starting point of Dybala.
