spices Juventus Turin, the Italian football champions, stopped the historically bad start to the season and with a great effort won their first victory in the Italian League over Spezia Calcio with 3: 2 (1: 1).
After the visitors advanced through Moise Kean after 28 minutes, the guest responded on Wednesday and turned the result with two goals from Emmanuel Gyasi (33) and Janis Antiest (49) to a surprising 2-1 lead. In six minutes, Federico Chiesa (66th place) and Matthijs de Ligt (72nd) secured the front-runner’s victory with their kicks.
Previously, Juventus and coach Massimiliano Allegri scored only two points in their first four league matches, the last time the Bianconeri had happened was 60 years ago and only three times in the club’s history (1942/43, 1955/56, 1961/62). Torino has been waiting for a clean sheet in 19 matches – this has not happened to any other club in the major European leagues during this period.
Milan improved to second place thanks to a 2-0 (0-0) win over FC Venice, tied behind rivals Inter. The winner of the match was the Frenchman Theo, who prepared 1-0 by Brahim Diaz (68) and scored 2-0 by himself (82). On Thursday, Napoli, who have won four times so far, could once again top the two teams in Milan by beating Sampdoria of Genoa.
