Juventus Youngster Nonge’s Nightmare Performance Against Napoli – Allegri’s Risk Backfires

Sunday evening, he celebrated his second appearance in Serie A against the reigning champion Neapolitan. Deprived of Rabiot and McKennie, Allegri took the risk of bringing up the young 18-year-old player. But the dream turned into a nightmare for the young midfielder. Entering the game in the 76th minute in place of Fabio Miretti, the Belgian U19 and U20 international first saw Federico Chiesa equalize with a beautiful right-footed cross shot.

It was then that the evening got complicated for Nonge. Just five minutes after the equalizer, he crushed his foot on Victor Osimhen’s ankle in the rectangle. Called by the VAR, the referee had no choice but to award a penalty to the Partenopei and show our compatriot a yellow card.

Already at Atlético, Juve, Lyon or Leverkusen, the 2005 generation promises a bright future: “There is enough talent to take over from the Devils”

If Osimhen saw his delivery stopped by Szczesny initially, Raspadori was quicker than the Turin defenders and gave his team the advantage. Allegri then made a strong move by bringing him out at the start of stoppage time… for defender Danilo while his team was trailing.

After the meeting, the Bianconeri coach did not return to this episode in general, referring more to the fact of fielding so many young players: “We have to improve on a lot of things. But experience will come with time, who prefers to remain positive about the future of their team, Juventus has perhaps fielded the youngest team in its history. We had 6 players born between 2005 and 2003. The important thing is to achieve the goal, knowing that next year we will have grown young players.”

But immediately, this setback for Juventus widens the gap with the Interist leader even further. The Bianconeri are now 12 points behind Inter and see AC Milan come back to within one point.
