Serie A | Verona 2-2 Juventus: Bianconeri crisis continues

Rabiot had a shot charged down and Cambiaso drilled past the post, but Juve equalised when Jackson Tchatchoua had his arm wide as the Filip Kostic shot hit his hand, so Vlahovic blasted in the left-foot penalty.

Suslov skimmed the upright and Folorunsho claimed he was elbowed in an off the ball incident by Federico Gatti, but there did not seem to be enough power behind it to warrant a VAR review and red card.

Darko Lazovic and Ondrej Duda had attempts from the edge of the box, one charged down, the other easily smothered by Wojciech Szczesny.

Verona threatened to restore their advantage straight after the restart, a Giangiacomo Magnani header skimming the crossbar on a corner, while Szczesny had his gloves stung by a long-range Noslin scorcher.

It was only a warning, as moments later Juve gave the ball away playing out from the back, Suslov and Folorunsho were blocked off, but still managed to send Noslin down the right to roll it through Szczesny’s legs at the near post.

That did not last long either, as Juventus won it back with a high press at the corner flag and Manuel Locatelli rolled across for Rabiot to take a touch and roll his precise finish into the far bottom corner with the inside of the left boot from 12 yards.

It remained wide open, Szczesny palming another Lazovic strike round the post and Vlahovic nodding the Rabiot cross over the bar.

Federico Chiesa also blasted off target from an Arek Milik lay-off and Reda Belahyane stung Szczesny’s gloves from distance.

Danilo was playing the last five minutes on one leg, as he landed awkwardly on his ankle and visibly could not run after all the substitutions had been completed.

Nonetheless, Lorenzo Montipò needed his first real save of the game in stoppages and it was a crucial one, sticking out a boot to deny Chiesa at the near post.
