Juventus Turin bounced back convincingly in the Italian Cup, beating Lazio Rome 2-0 in the semi-final first leg.
This victory gives the Turin club a valuable advantage before the return match at the Olympic Stadium in Rome. Goals from Federico Chiesa and Dusan Vlahovic were decisive, demonstrating an effective attack despite an up-and-down season for the Turin side in Serie A. Coach Massimiliano Allegri, whose future at the club is the subject of speculation, sees his team showing signs of improvement at a crucial time of the season.
Juventus wants to save its season
With this performance, Juve shows that it remains a formidable force in the Italian Cup, despite recent setbacks in the league. Lazio, for their part, will have to show a much more determined face in the return match if they wish to reverse the trend and qualify for the final. If the Turinese have taken an option to qualify for the final, the Roman team still has a card to play in this competition.
Juventus now have the opportunity to focus on their league run before facing Lazio in the semi-final second leg. It’s a pivotal time for Allegri and his players, who must manage the pressure of Serie A while keeping an eye on their goal of winning the Italian Cup, a trophy that could save their season. The other semi-final between Fiorentina and Atalanta also promises to be captivating this Wednesday evening, with the first leg scheduled at the Artemio Franchi stadium in Florence.
