Juventus lost to Atalanta this Saturday (27), at home, by 1-0, and is still very bad in the Italian Championship. With the result, the club remains in eighth place with 21 points.
In a warm start to the game, Juventus tried to break Atalanta’s block with some crosses in the area, without success. At 19, Dybala made a good individual play, but stopped at Juan Musso’s defense.
The offensive posture of the visiting team allowed the Old Lady to find spaces and bet on direct shots, which happened in the 19th minute, when Chiesa received a beautiful pass, entered the area, but was disarmed by Rafael Tolói.
If Atalanta’s high marks gave opportunities to the opponent, it also hindered Juve’s ball outing. On minute 27, Massimiliano Allegri’s team lost the ball in midfield and Duván Zapata did not forgive, opening the scoring for Atalanta.
In the second stage, the hosts had a lot of difficulties in creating goal chances. At 19, after a cross away by Gian Piero Gasperini’s team’s defense, Rabiot submitted from outside the area and led to danger.

With the support of the fans, Juventus threw themselves into the attack and tried to stifle their rival, who defended himself easily and stood up to kill the match in a counterattack.
Striker Kaio Jorge, ex-Santos, entered with five minutes to the end of the match, but was unable to avoid defeat. In stoppage time, at 94, Dybala had the last chance to tie in a free kick, but the ball exploded on the crossbar.
