21 November 2020 Juventus continues to rise, beating Cagliari 2-0 in the evening advance of the eighth day.
The bianconeri, awaiting the challenges on Sunday, momentarily rise to second place, one point behind leaders Milan (who plays at 8.45 pm at the San Paolo against Napoli) and with a length of advantage over Sassuolo (committed at 15 in Verona with the Hellas).
Pirlo lines up Buffon in goal instead of Szczesny and Bernardeschi preferred to Frabotta on the left.
De Ligt is back.
Among the Sardinians Di Francesco with Simeone and Joao Pedro in attack, even if he has to give up Godin (Covid) and Nandez.
Bianconeri with 4-4-2: Buffon;
Cuadrado, De Ligt, Demiral, Danilo;
Kulusevski, Arthur, Rabiot, Bernardeschi;
Morata, Cristiano Ronaldo.
Rossoblù with 4-2-3-1: Cragno;
Pisacane, Walukiewicz, Klavan, Tripaldelli;
Marin, Rog;
Zappa, Joao Pedro, Ounas;
Simeone.
Good start for the Sardinians who try with a lunge to the left of Tripaldelli.
Then with the passing of the minutes Juve comes out that pushes and creates a lot with Morata, Ronaldo and Kulusevski.
Then, at 38 ', the usual CR7 unlocks it and receives the ball in the area, returns and with an unstoppable right for Cragno he scores 1-0.
Five minutes pass and the Portuguese, stationed at the far post, finds the winning leg and scores a brace: 2-0.
In the second half, the Bianconeri were immediately close to the trio with a header by the Turkish defender Demiral who, however, hit the crossbar (53 ').
Chance for 3-0 also for Bernadeschi and, above all, Morata, but the aim is not the best.
Cagliari also tries with a goal that could reopen the match, but with no luck.
And the result doesn't change.
