Pogba has been awarded the Number 10 jersey and also taken on a new role, playing in Andrea Pirlo’s old position in front of the defence.

Zaza hit the woodwork and Kingsley Coman forced a fine save, but Pogba broke the deadlock with a scorching left-foot strike from distance.

There were worrying scenes as Mandzukic limped off and sat on the bench with ice wrapped around his right knee following a knock.

Juve have already suffered from numerous injury problems this summer, including Claudio Marchisio, Alvaro Morata and Sami Khedira.

Paulo Dybala came on for the second half and impressed with some interesting moves, skimming the woodwork and pulling back for Fernando Llorente to fire at the goalkeeper.
