Monza-Juve 1-2, report cards: Vlahovic has no impact, Gonzalez constant danger, Dany Mota the last to give up

Juventus interrupts the series of draws after 43 days and returns to winning the championship against Monza with a result of 2-1. At the U-Power Stadium the success came thanks to goals from McKennie and Nico Gonzalez, Birindelli's temporary equalizer was useless. Here are the votes of the protagonists of the match:

— Monza report cards —

Stefano TURATI 5.5 – On McKennie's goal, his position in the small area can be reviewed, generally a little hesitant on shots from outside

Pedro PEREIRA 6 – He often projects forward to create density, behind Monza's best (from 70' CIURRIA 5 – Nesta inserts him for his offensive propensity, he disappoints)

Danilo D’AMBROSIO 5,5 – In the 70th minute he has the chance to equalize in the penalty area, all alone: ​​he shoots very high. What a mistake! (from 82' IZZO S.V.)

PAUL MARÍ 5 – Too much defensive amnesia, especially in the small area: leadership and precision are lacking

Andrea CARBONI 5.5 – Unforgivable errors in marking on McKennie at 1-0 and on Nico Gonzalez at 2-1, he only partially redeems himself with the assist to the kiss for Birindelli

Samuele BIRINDELLI 6.5 – His first career goal in Serie A is a feat against his father's former team, a game of depth and intensity on the right flank. He leaves the field exhausted (from the 86th minute SENSI S.V.)

Alessandro WHITE 6 – Recovered balls and determination in a busy area of ​​the pitch

Warren BONDO 5,5 – Muscles and dynamism at the service of the Brianza team, a bit of quality is missing

Georgios Kyriakopoulos 6 – Crosses, triangulations and bucking: the home team's counterattacks are his bread and butter

Gianluca CAPRARI 6 – As soon as he “sees” the door, he pulls. Thorn in the side of Motta's rearguard (from 86' MARIC S.V.)

DANY MOTA 6 – Constantly pressing the Juventus ball carriers. He takes them all with his head, dispensing precious tricks to his teammates. All he's missing is a goal

Coach Alessandro NESTA 5.5 – His Monza, bottom of Serie A, is courageous and bold: after the 1-0 they are not immediately scared and find the deserved equaliser. In the second half, despite the disadvantage, he fought tooth and nail until the end

— Juventus report cards —

Michele DI GREGORIO 6 – The great ex of the evening remains motionless on Birindelli's volley tap-in: the shot is sudden, true, but he is too surprised

Nicolò SAVONA 6.5 – He often makes amends when his team mates make mistakes: he goes the distance on the right

Federico GATTI 6 – After a not entirely convincing first half, he was more present and ready in the second half. Also and above all in the setup phase

Peter Kalulu 5.5 – Leave everything alone to Birindelli at 1-1, more imprecise than usual even in the supports being built. Better in the second half

Weston MCKENNIE 6,5 – In the right place at the right time on the corner that unlocks the match: the American's second league goal which fades away in the second half as the minutes pass (from the 91st minute FAGIOLI S.V.)

Manuel LOCATELLI 6.5 – Tames the 2-1 ball for Nico Gonzalez: a play that elevates the ordinary administration in midfield

Teun KOOPMEINERS 6.5 – His assist from a corner on McKennie's goal was decisive, at the end of the first half he also disguised himself as a goalkeeper, blocking a couple of Monza shots in the area. He comes off at half-time due to an adductor problem (from 46' THURAM 6 – His entry gives physicality to Motta's midfielder)

Francisco CONCEICAO 6 – Almost all of Juventus' attacking actions pass through his feet, but he also loses a lot of balls. Two-sided match (from 85' ADZIC S.V.)

Kenan YILDIZ 6 – Anonymous first half: out of the game for most of the time. However, when he switched on after the break it made the difference on a couple of occasions

Nico GONZALEZ 7 – On the occasion of the 2-1 he pounces on the loose ball like a feline: a goal worth the three points, wanted and sought throughout the match. He also sacrifices himself in defense in the second half (from the 63rd minute CAMBIASO 6 -Performs defensive duties well)

Dusan VLAHOVIC 5 – It moves a lot, but also a lot in vain. He never manages to get to the shot, a frustrating evening for the Serbian (from the 85th minute TRANSLATION SV.)

All. Thiago MOTTA 6 – His Juventus returned to victory in the championship after a month and a half: a difficult match, the result of which was in the balance until the end. There is a lot to work on, but this success was essential to stay in the wake of the Champions League train
