Although this is the first defeat of Juventus in the season, the fact that the Old Lady has not registered a victory since September 13 is worrying. The situation is all the more difficult because they have a difficult away game in Madrid against Real Madrid in the Champions League next week.
The match against Como started shockingly for Juventus — already in the 4th minute, Kempf scored to give the home team the lead. Instead of the expected response and increased offensive, Tudor’s team seemed without ideas and without energy. Until the end of the first half, Como calmly controlled the game and kept a minimal advantage.
In the second part of the match, Juventus played even weaker, and the fans rightly began to doubt how long Igor Tudor would stay on the bench. The midfield was completely ineffective, and a few futile efforts towards the Com goal were all they showed.
The penalty came in the 79th minute, when Paz made the final 2:0 with a precise shot and caused an eruption of delight in the stands.
With the victory over Juventus, Como leapfrogged the Old Lady in the standings and now occupies the fifth position with 12 points. Juventus fell lower and in the next round they have a difficult visit to Lazio in Rome, while Fabregas’ team will play against Parma.
