The match between Sampdoria and Juventus on Monday evening ended goalless, leaving the Ferraris with one point apiece at the end of a difficult season. Sampdoria are on the verge of grabbing the lead in the sixth minute after Bremer fails to interfere on a pocket from Sabiri, with Leris striking from the outside but being fascinated by the goalkeeper, who deflects on the crossbar saving him in departure.
Cuadrado steals the ball from his opponents, sprints towards the goal, and kicks with force, finding Audero ready to march in two halves and the visitors responding in a quarter-hour. At the age of 23, Kostic attempts with his right, with Audero going up for a turn following Ferrari’s initial departure. The second half of the first half is lacklustre, as the two teams go into the halftime break deadlocked at 0-0.
The bianconeri took the lead through Rabiot after 20 minutes of the second half, but the Var disallowed it owing to Vlahovic’s first offside. An episode that looks to release a hitherto unexplored second half, but this will not be the case.
The rest of the game is uneventful until the minutes of recovery, when Audero still saves his team on a close but poorly executed left-handed effort by Kostic. The game ends in a tie.
As a result, Juventus falls to fourth position after the first two days of the competition, missing out on first place. On Saturday, Allegri’s side will face Roma in Turin. Giampaolos Sampdoria, on the other hand, gained their first point of the season, taking them off the bottom of the league and allowing them to look forward to their next trip to the Salernitana pitch on Sunday with confidence.
Mourinho names the same starting eleven that won in Salerno, with Felix Afena-Gyan and Shomurodov on the bench. When reading the formations, he whistled at the two, who were guilty of remaining in the Giallorossi lineup and not making room for Andrea Belotti’s purchase. Alvini makes many changes from the match in Florence, including the debut of Georgian Lochoshvili in defence and the promotion of Argentine Ascacibar from 1. A single department verified the attack.
The Giallorossi pushed from the outset, with Pellegrini and Dybala in the first three having the opportunity to release the match, while Cremonese resisted with Radu on the shields and Chiriches on the wall version. Valeri, Zaniolo, and Dybala show their class and quickness, terrifying but not defeating the goalie, almost wasting Abraham with the goal unguarded.
When Lochoshvili’s crucial intervention knocks Zaniolo out at the end of the first half, the offensive midfielder is forced to leave the field. El Shaarawy has assumed control.
The score remained identical in the second half, with Roma dominating but failing to capitalise on many opportunities. As Dybala squanders a few steps, El Shaarawy is halted by the crossbar. Dessers, who approaches the goal in reverse, has all the ingredients for a great comedy.
Again, none of the miraculous assaults opened it: Cristante in Salerno, Smalling this time. In the 65th minute, the Englishman breaks free from a Pellegrini corner and heads past the goalie for a 1-0 lead that will last till the end.
Roma can celebrate their second consecutive victory and prepare for Saturday’s crucial match against Juventus at the Allianz Stadium, while Cremonese can only be content with another respectable performance.
Dislocation of the left shoulder as a result of direct injury. This is the prognosis for Nicol Zaniolo, who was forced to leave the field during the first half of Roma-Cremonese to attend in-depth tests at Villa Stuart following the national team’s September break.
In Genoa, Juve did not pass: the score was 0-0 with Samp. Rome defeats Cremonese 1-0 to take all three points.
