There Juventus won at home verona the fifth race in a row and thanks to the success of Bentegodi he won third place in the standings. The Bianconeri didn’t particularly shine, but thanks to Moise Kean brought home another very important victory, both for the classification and for the team’s morale after a not so easy start to the season.
in the end the Old lady suffered a lot with the push of the Gialloblù team, who protested for some situations that occurred in the area, and was close to scoring in another pair, but there was a situation that could lead to many other implications in the match if Alex Sandro did not intervene decisively.
The Brazilian player landed on the edge of the Lasagna area thrown into the net and the referee couldn’t help but draw the red card: the number 12 prevented the attacking opponent from coming face to face with Perin a few minutes before the final whistle and so he got the expulsion that will also force him to miss the last match of 2022 against Lazio.
Massimiliano Allegri spoke to DAZN about the expulsion of Alex Sandro and defended him: “Paredes had to make a foul and the two defenders had to shorten. Luckily Alex Sandro made a foul, which doesn’t deserve a fine, but rewards. Same situation.”
The Juventus coach reiterated this concept also during the press conference on the sidelines of the game against Hellas: “Alex Sandro’s red card is worth a goal, he was very good. It happens at times to receive crosses, but tonight it was important to win.”
Allegri knows how important this victory is for his Juventus and whether he had to sacrifice a player to get there is not important: closing 2022 tied to the front train allows him to wait for his return to the field in 2023, after the break for the Cup of the World, and raise the bar after a very difficult start to the season.
