Juventus could have done more with their man advantage, but still managed to come away from the Stadio Dall’Ara with a vital 1-0 win over Bologna.
Juventus
Di Gegorio: Good reaction stop to deny Orsolini early on. Had to be alert late in the first half when Bologna hit the bar. Not troubled much afterwards. 6.0/10
Kalulu: Gave away a cheap free kick early on but was pretty foot perfect thereafter. Pushed up when he could to create pressure. Decent. 6.0/10
Kelly: Did a great job at the back, keeping a close eye on Dallinga and snuffed out almost every threat. Excellent. 6.5/10
Koopmeiners: Forced into a wayward challenge on Orsolini that earned him a yellow card but was steady enough after that. 5.5/10
Cambiaso: Poor delivery on the early set pieces and was pretty anonymous for large spells of the first half. Average. 5.0/10
Thuram:. Energetic, but didn’t do enough in the final third. 5.5/10
Locatelli: Provided a great ball to craft a half chance for Yildiz in the early part of the game. Kept the midfield ticking over. 6.0/10
Mckennie:A little too quiet but still had some nice touches to get the attack away. 5.0/10
Yildiz: Forced a stop from Ravaglia in the early exchanges and was generally instrumental in creating chances for the attack. Provided the assist for the Juventus opener. 7.0/10
Conceicao: Made a great run that forced a booking for Miranda. A real livewire without getting close to scoring. 5.5/10
David:. Got into the right positions at the start of the game but failed to capitalise. Played some decent balls for his teammates but was ultimately left frustrated. 5.5/10
Spalletti: Played his tried and tested starting XI in a 3-4-2-1, not tweaking things in the hopes of finding continuity. Timed his subs perfectly, both having a massive impact on the match. 7/10
Substitutions
Openda: Immediately into the action, setting up Yildiz for a shot that was forced wide. 6.0/10
Cabal: Scored with his first touch. Excellent. 6.5/10
Bremer: N/A
Miretti: N/A
