Juventus had a disappointing match as they drew at home to Genoa. The men in black and white have seen their confidence dented due to a series of poor effects in recent weeks.
The match gave Genoa another chance to regain form and get a win. However, Juve were unable to break through during the match, which is disheartening to watch.
Dusan Vlahovic’s comeback failed to shape the attack and Genoa defended well against a Juve side that looked lacking confidence.
Journalist Gianfranco Teotino observed their struggles and insisted that the team showed a lot of nervousness during the match.
He said, quoted via Tuttojuve:
“There is a lot of nervousness, not only from Vlahovic, but also from the other players who exchanged passionate words and expressed their dissatisfaction with the substitutions. This only confirms the utter futility of the retreat, as it only made the team agitated to the max.
“The first half was bad, with some improvement in the second half thanks to substitutions. Iling seemed to be alive to the fullest, but the team didn’t live up to its potential. Some players on the field make you think if you’re in the right position or not, and this challenge has been going on for weeks.
Juve FC says
We’ve been lacking confidence for weeks due to our performances in the last few games, so it’s understandable that the players were nervous.
However, time is running out to turn the tide and we want to get back to winning tactics as soon as possible.
