ParisJuventus of Turin have chained together a second victory in the Italian championship by dominating Hellas 3-0 in Verona, this Monday in the match that brought down the curtain on the second round of Serie A, in which the ‘bianconeri’ are the sole leaders.
After several warnings to the local goalkeeper Lorenzo Montipo, Juve opened the scoring through Serbian striker Dusan Vlahovic (28), with a pass from the Turkish Kenan Yildiz.
The ‘Old Lady’ extended their lead with a header from the young 21-year-old defender Nicolo Savona (39), and a penalty converted by Vlahovic (53).

After winning 3-0 against newly promoted Como in the first round, Thiago Motta’s men, who arrived in Turin at the end of last season, are the sole leaders with six points, ahead of a group of six teams with four points, including reigning champions Inter Milan.
“He is definitely working hard on our aggression and our attitude,” Vlahovic told DAZN of the new Juventus coach. “We all agree that our attitude is the key to everything, with the right mentality everything works better,” the striker added.
Juve, who are aiming to win their first Scudetto since 2019-2020, will have their first test of level next Sunday against Roma.
Earlier on Monday, Cesc Fabregas’ Como earned their first point of the season thanks to a goal from former AC Milan striker Patrick Cutrone that made it 1-1 at Cagliari.
It was where the young Argentine midfielder, formerly of Real Madrid, Nico Paz, made his debut.
