Juventus gets up. With difficulty, after having been under and one step away from the abyss, but with a well-deserved and, all in all, convincing success, able to give confidence to the group in view of a very blessed stop. The 3-1 over Bologna was not a joke but a long test of nerves, in which all the difficulties of a difficult and, in some ways, cursed season came out. In the end, however, right on the edge of the precipice, the Lady got up again, conquering a very heavy success, in terms of ranking and morale.
“Winning was important, we needed it to move the standings – confirmed Allegri in the press conference. – We will need the break, we need to recover some players to find continuity again”. Sigh of relief for the Juventus coach, who even if he had a bad time, indeed very bad. In fact, after just 5' Bologna passed through Mounier, who was very good at burning the opposing defense and making Masina's assist materialize. Uphill game for the Lady, forced to come back, for the umpteenth time, at home against a "small".
This time, however, the spirit was very different and the opportunities flocked right from the start. The rossoblu wall held up but in the 33rd minute, after several opportunities, Morata scored, ruthless in turning Khedira's assist into gold. At the beginning of the second half the turning point: a foul by Ferrari (questionable) on Dybala and a penalty converted by the Argentine himself, very cold in displacing the innocent Mirante (52 '). From then on, no particular problems, with a Juve team that also found the time to score the third goal with Khedira (63'), left alone in the middle of the area by the Bolognese defence.
A very important victory for the Bianconeri, who can look forward to the rest of the season with more optimism, also in the light of an ever-changing ranking. The summit is far away (there are 10 points from leaders Fiorentina) but the championship is so unpredictable that a comeback is still possible. “Our season began in mid-September – continued Allegri. – We have many new players, we need patience. Now we are doing well but we have to improve. There are margins, after the break we'll see where we can get to”.
On his return there will be the San Siro match against Inter, a great testing ground for learning about Juventus' ambitions. No one says it openly but everyone is aiming for that match: the comeback, in fact, necessarily passes from 18 October, the watershed date of the Juventus season.
