A match in the 14th round of Serie A was contested, and Juventus challenged Monza away. Juventus have been in excellent form this season, with nine wins, three draws and one defeat in their first 13 league games, with 30 points and second place, just two points behind Inter Milan at the top of the table. There is no doubt that Juventus are the favourites. There is no European competition to play, so Juventus can focus on the league, unlike other teams whose fitness is affected by multi-front play. This time, Juventus will face Monza, who are ranked 9th. As a result, Juventus took it, albeit in a difficult process.
Juventus lined up 352 formations in this match. Vlahovic and Chiesa are paired up in the strikers. Kostic, Rabiot, Kaviglia, McKennie and Cambiasso make up the midfield five. Alex Sandro, Bremer and Gatti started the game at the back three. Szczesny was the starting goalkeeper. Keane, Miretti, Locatelli and Danilo were on the bench.
Juventus got off to a good start and were awarded an early penalty. However, Vlahovic missed the penalty. However, it wasn't long before Rabiot scored for Juventus. Federico Chiesa and Gatti then went into danger but neither could find the back of the net. At half-time, Juventus led by one goal. Juventus had 37% possession in the first half, 10 shots on goal with 4 on target and scored 1 goal. Monza, on the other hand, had just five shots on goal in the first half, and none of them were on target.
In the second half, Monza had to fight with their backs and step up their attack. Colombo shot wide, Pessina's in-cut shot was also wide, and D'Ambrosio's shot was also wide. Monza's players were really eye-catching, with a pitiful number of shots on target from the woodwork. The climax of the game came in stoppage time. Carboni equalised for Monza.
I thought the game would end there, but I didn't expect Juventus to quickly score another goal, this time it was Gatti who scored the goal, he completed the stunner, it's incredible!The final score was set at 2-1, with Juventus beating Monza to the top of the standings. Valued at €40 million, Rabiot was the best player of the game, scoring two goals, making great passes, making four tackles and two interceptions, and performing impecbly at both ends of the pitch and was arguably dominant.
