Juventus beat Sassuolo 3-0 in Turin thanks to a Dusan Vlahovic brace and a Federico Chiesa goal. Check out Football Italia’s player ratings from the Allianz Stadium.
Juventus
Szczesny 6.5 – He had made several errors in the reverse fixture in September. This time, he produced a couple of saves that helped Juve remain in a comfortable position.
Rugani 6.5 – He is no longer a kid, but he’s become increasingly reliable for the Old Lady. On nights like these, he rarely disappoints.
Bremer 6.5 – Usual composure and physicality used to take troubles away from Szczesny’s goal.
Danilo 7 – The Brazilian used his experience wisely.
Cambiaso 6.5 – The ex-Genoa man takes a little step forward in each game. Against Sassuolo, he contributed in the final third but was also reliable defensively. (87′ Alex Sandro N/A)
Miretti 7 – He delivered the assist for Vlahovic’s opener and showed glimpses of his quality. (57′ Weah 6)
Locatelli 7 – The Italy international is growing into a complete midfielder. He won the ball high up the pitch in the dying minutes, delivering the assist to Chiesa for Juventus’ third goal.
Rabiot 6.5 – Consigli saved a Frenchman’s shot from outside the box in the first half, and Rabiot didn’t really have more chances afterwards but won most duels in midfield.
Kostic 6 – A decent defensive performance to boost his confidence at a tricky time of the season for him. (82′ Iling-Junior N/A)
Yildiz 6.5 – Juventus fans already love this kid. They held their breath whenever he touched the ball because they knew he could make things happen. He didn’t have many chances tonight but always tried to be effective. (57′ Chiesa 7)
Vlahovic 8 – Litteraly on fire tonight. The first goal was stunning, the second was even better. He fought on every ball for the entire game and seemed in his best shape this season. A deserved standing ovation when he left the pitch. (82′ Milik N/A)
Coach: Allegri 7- Sassuolo are not at their best moment, but Juventus made it look easy against the only team that has beaten them this season, keeping the title race alive.
Sassuolo (4-2-3-1): Consigli 4; Pedersen 5.5, Erlic 5 (46′ Ruan 5), Ferrari 5.5, Viti 5 (74′ Missori 6); Matheus Henrique 5.5, Boloca 5.5, Thorstvedt 5 (70′ Volpato N/A); Berardi 6 (70′ Castillejo 5.5), Pinamonti 5, Lauriente 5.5 (84′ Mulattieri N/A). Coach: Dionisi 5
What match did you see??
Yildiz was on fire in the first half and still he gets lower rating than Miretti???!?
It’s mostly because of the assist.
McKennie didn’t play?
