In the past night, a number of key Serie A matches were staged, among which Juventus defeated Roma at home and continued to catch up with Inter Milan at the top of the table. AC Milan successfully won the bitter Sassuolo and firmly occupied the third position. After this night, the situation of the Serie A title and the fourth place has changed a lot.
Juventus 1-0 Roma.
Due to Inter's 1-1 upset away from home, they failed to win Genoa, which also gave Juventus a chance to close the gap. As long as they beat Roma in this game, the gap between Juventus and Inter will be reduced to 2 points.
Juventus were certainly in contention, taking complete control of the situation on their home turf and scoring the only goal of the game shortly after the start of the second half through Rabiot. Vlahovic knocked the ball with his back and Rabiot faced the Roma goalkeeper and finally volleyed home from a tight angle, which also gave Juve three points.
After losing 1-0 to Juventus, Roma have won only one of their last four games, during which they have dropped eight points, resulting in being completely left behind by the top four teams, and it is a bit dangerous for Roma to fight for four this season.
Milan 1-0 Sassuolo.
In the previous three seasons, AC Milan lost all of them at home to Sassuolo, and such a one-sided record is really weird. Even against giants like Juventus and Inter, AC Milan has never been so miserable. Fortunately, this season, AC Milan finally broke their fate, and they finally got three points 1-0.
In the 59th minute of the second half, AC Milan went straight forward, Pulisic stepped forward to receive the ball, and then got a single chance, facing the away goalkeeper, he calmly pushed the goal, AC Milan also won 1-0, the last laugh.
After this night, the situation of the Serie A title race is more intense, and Juventus are currently separated by 2 points from Inter Milan at the top of the table, and if Inter Milan has problems in the next round, they will be overtaken by Juventus at any time. As for AC Milan, they are now unbeaten in three games and the team is starting to get back on track. Although there is no hope of winning the title this season, AC Milan will retain the top four and believe there are no major problems.
After Roma lost, they have fallen to 7th place, almost 1 month, Roma fell from fourth to the current position, it is indeed embarrassing, this squad is thin and aspiring to fight for the fourth, even if there is Mu Shuai strategizing, there is a deep sense of powerlessness. In the next winter window, Roma should still strengthen the squad, otherwise, they may continue to miss the top four!
