The numbers don’t lie. Szczesny rules in Serie A. He has no equal

The legal and financial scandal involving Juventus Turin makes every point scored for Massimiliano Allegri’s team incredibly valuable. So far, the “Old Lady” has been punished with a 15-point deduction, but it may not end there. After a sensational 2-0 defeat to Monza, Juventus players won two league victories (3-0 against Salernitana and 1-0 against Fiorentina) and are currently in 9th place in Serie A.

Happy in great form. Polish goalkeeper with the most clean sheets

The 1-0 win over Fiorentina at the Allianz Stadium was Wojciech Szczęsny’s 11th league match in which the goalkeeper of the Polish national team did not let the spade into the net. At the moment, the 32-year-old is the Serie A leader in the list of goalkeepers with the most clean sheets. The Pole can only be matched by Ivan Provedel – Lazio’s goalkeeper, who also did not take the ball out of the goal in eleven matches, but Szczęsny did it in 16 matches, and the Italian in 22.

In addition, Wojciech Szczęsny was also in first place in the classification of goalkeepers with the best percentage of matches with a clean sheet, who played at least five games.

1. Wojciech Szczęsny (Juventus FC) – 69 percent. (11/16)
2. Mattia Perin (Juventus FC) – 57% (4/7)
3. Ivan Provedel (SS Lazio) – 50 percent. (11/22)
4. Alex Meret (SSC Napoli) – 45.5 percent. (10/22)
5. Juan Musso (Atalanta BC) – 43.8 percent. (7/17)

Those were very important three points. In the end, the referee disallowed a goal for Fiorentina, but I thought it was a foul, not offside. The deduction of points made the team nervous, but every day I look at the table and it motivates me – said Szczesny after the match against Fiorentina.

In the next league match, Juventus will play away to Spezia, which is in 17th place. The meeting will take place on Sunday, February 19 at 6:00 p.m.
