Juventus Victory Over Lazio
Juventus managed to get a second successive victory in the 2018/19 Serie A competition after beating Lazio 2-0 at Allianz Stadium. Goals from Miralem Pjanic and Mario Mandzukic give the home team three points.
Lazio can be considered unlucky after getting two tough matches in their opening two Serie A 2018/19 matches with Napoli and Juventus, two top-flight teams in the last few seasons.
After gaining a narrow defeat from Napoli at the Stadio Olimpico, Simone Inzaghi's desire to rise from the results earned a heavy obstacle from the defending champions.
Facing Juventus at Allianz Stadium, Lazio clearly saw difficulties in creating opportunities and developing their game scheme. The players in the midfield of the Italian capital team cannot contribute meaningfully throughout the match.
This performance must be corrected immediately if they want to win three points in the next matches.
Having options on the front lines such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Mario Mandzukic and Paolo Dybala, is a luxury that various teams in the world want to feel, and this option is currently owned by Juventus.
Despite having high-quality players who can play as central strikers, the last two matches played by Juventus clearly show that they need new players to fill that position.
32-year-old Mario Mandzukic, with Cristiano Ronaldo one year on top, is not an ideal partner to undergo a full season that can last up to 40 or even 50 matches.
High expectations were on the shoulders of Cristiano Ronaldo after he joined Juventus from Real Madrid for a fee of 100 million euros and signed a four-year contract.
His failure to score in his first two matches in Serie A has increased the pressure on the Portuguese star, but this is not a problem that must produce an excessive reaction.
Being able to play 90 minutes in two matches facilitates the process of adapting Cristiano Ronaldo to his new club, and the time for the former Manchester United player to score his first goal with Juventus is getting closer.
