Serie A: Juventus vs Roma | Post Match Analysis
Juventus vs Roma
In a highly anticipated Serie A clash, Juventus and Roma played out a 0-0 draw at the Allianz Stadium, ending the Bianconeri’s perfect start to the season. The match saw both teams introduce new signings, but neither side could find the breakthrough in a tightly contested affair.
Juventus, who had won their first two games 3-0, gave debuts to several new acquisitions. Teun Koopmeiners and Francisco Conceicao made their first appearances for the club, while Nico Gonzalez was introduced in an unusual center-forward role. However, the home side was without injured players Khephren Thuram, Tim Weah, and Arkadiusz Milik.
Roma, under the guidance of Daniele De Rossi, made surprising team selections. Paulo Dybala and Leandro Paredes were dropped in favor of deadline day signing Alexis Saelemaekers and 19-year-old Niccolò Pisilli. The Giallorossi also handed a debut to Manu Kone in the second half.
The match saw few clear-cut chances, with both teams struggling to break the deadlock. Lorenzo Pellegrini came close for Roma with a curling effort that was deflected wide, while Dusan Vlahovic had a flick saved by Mile Svilar and later drilled a shot wide for Juventus.
As the game progressed, both managers made changes in an attempt to secure victory. Thiago Motta introduced Koopmeiners and Conceicao for Juventus, while De Rossi brought on former Juventus player Dybala. Despite these efforts, neither team could find the winning goal, with Angelino’s long-range effort for Roma skimming the far post in one of the game’s final chances.
The result leaves both teams with work to do as they look to climb the Serie A table. Juventus will be disappointed to have their winning streak ended, while Roma will hope to build on this point in their upcoming fixtures.
