Dusan Vlahovic responds to Jonathan David and saves Juventus in the Champions League. Thiago Motta cameback to equalize (thanks to the Serbian’s penalty in the second half) against the great-killing Lille team who at home in recent months beat first José Mourinho (in the preliminaries with Fenerbahce) and then Carlo Ancelotti (Real Madrid). A precious point for the Bianconeri, who restart after the home defeat against Stuttgart and reach 7 points, like the French.
DAVID-GOL
—
Genesio starts with Zhegrova, Gomes and Sahraoui behind David. Motta places Conceicao, Koopmeiners and Yildiz in support of Vlahovic. Juventus tries to control the game, but Lille are very aggressive and skilled at doubling their goals. The Bianconeri struggled to break through on the right with Conceicao, who often attempted one dribble too many, so they mainly insisted on the left, exploiting the technical ability of Kenan Yildiz or through the central routes, focusing on the insertions of Koopmeiners. Yildiz puts Mandi in trouble, but not as much as Zhegrova does with Cabal. The Kosovar right winger of Lille, who has long been a special observer of Juventus like the striker David, was decisive just before the half-hour mark in the action that gave Genesio’s team the lead. Conceicao messes up and loses the ball, Zhegrova starts again, skips Cabal and pots for David, glacial in front of Michele Di Gregorio. The Bianconeri’s response was a beautiful turn by Vlahovic, but goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier confirmed that he was going through a period of grace. At the end of the first half Koopmeiners revs up and has a goal disallowed for offside. In reality, it would be the second for the Dutchman, but previously Vlahovic’s irregular position was very clear.

PAREGGIA VLAHOVIC
—
Juventus starts attacking again in the second half, but Chevalier, after the miracle on Vlahovic, repeats himself on Khephren Thuram. And Zhegrova, as soon as Lille manages to restart, creates dangers in the area. Compared to the first 45 minutes, Conceicao changes pace, winning a penalty at the first moment of the second half (foul by Andre). Vlahovic from the spot is as cold as the temperature in Lille. The Serbian reopens the match, but Thiago Motta replaces him with Weah at the hour mark, redesigning the team with the additions of McKennie, Savona and the move of Yildiz to the “false 9” role. Men change, but Zhegrova’s inspiration remains identical, who tries until the end but finds an attentive and reactive Di Gregorio on her path.
