Goals, expulsion, missed penalty, improbable comeback and seven goals. THE Juventus won the Roma 4-3 at the Stadio Olimpico, in the Italian capital, in one of the great games of the season in Europe so far and remained on the heels of the G-4 of the Italian Championship.

The hosts opened the scoring in the 10th minute of the first half with the English Tammy Abraham, with a header, after a corner kick by Veretout. Shortly after, at 18, Dybala equalized for Juve in a beautiful half-moon shot from the area. But the emotion was on account of the final 45 minutes.

On the return of the break, Mkhitaryan risked from afar and counted on a deflection to beat Szczesny and replace the Roma forward. At seven minutes into the second half, Pellegrini hit a beautiful free-kick from the right angle and left José Mourinho’s team with a big advantage: 3 to 1.

However, the Old Lady would react. Especially after Morata took over from Kean. At 23, the Spaniard made the move for Juve’s second goal from the right, with a beautiful dribble and cross, with his left leg, for Locatelli’s header. Three minutes later, he kicked from the small area and, on the rebound, Kulusevski scored a goal that was only validated by VAR: 3-3.

The unlikely turn came at 31 of the second stage. Cuadrado passed over on the left, Smalling missed when he tried to get away and gave the ball to De Sciglio’s feet. The side submitted the first and made the fourth of the Juventus in Roma.
–
The classic didn’t stop there. In the 37th minute, De Ligt put his arm on the ball in an attempt to intercept a shot and conceded a penalty to the Roma. As he had a yellow card, the Dutchman was expelled. Ideal scenario for Mourinho’s team to seek their turn in the match.
–
But that’s not what happened. Pellegrini took the penalty in the right corner, and Szczesny went looking to secure a 4-3 victory for the Juventus in Roma.
–
With the result, Juve reaches 38 points, in fifth position, with three points less than Atalanta, which opens the G-4. THE Roma parks at 32, in seventh place. The Old Lady returns to the field next Wednesday, against Inter Milan, in the decision of the Italian Supercup. Mourinho’s team faces Cagliari, on the 16th, in Serie A.
