Juventus lit up the night at the Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi, crushing Verona 3-0 on Monday and securing their second straight win to kick off the 2024-25 Italian Serie A season! 🎉⚽
The Old Lady are on fire! 🔥 They're the only club to have won both of their first two games in Italy's top flight, netting a total of six goals while keeping two clean sheets. Talk about domination! 🙌
Serbian striker Dusan Vlahovic opened the scoring in the 28th minute, setting the pace for the match. Just 11 minutes later, newcomer Nicolo Savona found the back of the net on his full debut! What a way to introduce yourself! 👏
In the 52nd minute, young talent Samuel Mbangula broke into the box from the left wing and earned a penalty. Vlahovic stepped up and coolly converted, sealing his brace and the team's victory. Ice in his veins! ❄️
Coach Thiago Motta couldn't hide his excitement: \"You can see the group's attitude from the way they press the opponent. They take risks, but if you recover the ball, it's a big advantage,\" he told DAZN. \"Congratulations to Dusan, but also to all the others who applied good pressure, allowing us to score.\"
Vlahovic shared the love after the match: \"We got the three points, I'm happy for Savona, for the team, and for the fans. I was a bit unlucky with Como, but today the goals arrived, and I'm happy with the attitude of the team. The results are the consequence of the work we do.\" 💪
With this victory, Juventus sits proudly at the top of the Serie A table. Can they keep up this momentum? Only time will tell, but fans are buzzing! 🥳
