Juventus fans, get ready to celebrate! 🎉 New coach Thiago Motta couldn't have asked for a better debut, leading Juve to a dazzling 3-0 victory over newly-promoted Como at a jam-packed Allianz Stadium on Monday night. ✨
The energy was electric ⚡ as forward Samuel Mbangula opened the scoring in the 23rd minute with a brilliant solo run. The 20-year-old Belgian sensation not only netted his first Serie A goal for Juve but also made history as the youngest Belgian to score in the league! 🇧🇪🏆
Just when you thought it couldn't get any better, Timothy Weah doubled the lead in first-half stoppage time! ⏰ The winger smashed in a cross from Kenan Yildiz, and the ball kissed the underside of the bar before settling into the net. Goal vibes only! 🙌🔥
The second half kept fans on the edge of their seats. Dusan Vlahovic thought he had tripled the lead just after the break, but his header was ruled offside. 😢 No worries, though! Andrea Cambiaso sealed the deal in stoppage time with a stunning long-range strike. Talk about ending with a bang! 💥
This match marks a fresh start for Juventus under Motta's leadership. After guiding Bologna to the Champions League last season, he's aiming to bring the Serie A title back to Turin after four years. 🏆 Can he work his magic again? ✨
Meanwhile, hats off to Como for their fighting spirit on their return to Serie A after 21 years. 🎩 Coached by the legendary Cesc Fabregas, they're sure to spice things up this season! 💫
In other news, Atalanta smashed Lecce 4-0 earlier on Monday, with Marco Brescianini and Mateo Retegui both bagging braces. Goals galore! ⚽⚽
Stay tuned, footy fans! The season is just heating up! 🔥⚽
