He probably wouldn’t have expected such a quiet afternoon either.
BROWN 6
It’s not at its best, but it limits the damage. Caldirola (10 ‘st) 6.5 Brings balance.
MARIO 7
He oversees the area of competence with judgment: providential closure on De Sciglio, then an early intervention on Bremer avoids worse troubles.
IZZO 7
He feels the air of a derby, from a fresh ex grenade, and has the merit, if we can consider it as such, to cause the expulsion of Di Maria. When it comes to battle, he is second to none.
JURY 7.5
He throws himself in with courage: from a couple of his forays come the first dangerous actions of Palladino’s boys. From his foot comes Gytkjaer’s goal: a constant thorn in the side.
PESSINA 7
He runs like crazy from side to side, like a true captain.
ROVELLA 7
After the entire pre-season under Allegri’s orders, he finds himself against his former teammates without fear: he rises in intensity and is everywhere.
SENSITIVE 6
Some good geometry and a couple of intriguing crosses: little for those who should make a difference. He comes out with a problem in his left calf. Barberis (9 ‘st) 6.5 Order and ideas.
CARLO AUGUSTO 6.5
He sticks to the score and doesn’t miss a note. Birindelli (40 ‘st) ng.
MOTA 6
He devours a solar goal on an inviting assist from Ciurria at the start of the second half, but he fights.
Gytkjaer (10 ‘st) 8
Invoked by the fans at the entrance to the field, he shows up with a header not by much. “The Viking scored a goal” they sing from the curve and he punishes Juve with the movement of a thoroughbred striker.
CAPRARI 6
It shines in flashes, without completely convincing: it gets lost in some excessive affectation.
Colpani (24 ‘st) 6.5 Quality when you need it.
EVERYTHING. PALLADINO 7.5
Debuting against Juventus is not easy for anyone, not even for the former Juventus player chosen by Berlusconi and Galliani to revive Monza. The team gains confidence, finding themselves in front of a dull Juventus with no ideas: whoever starts well is half the battle.
