Juventus moved into the top four of Serie A after a narrow 1-0 win over Atalanta, extending their unbeaten run in the league to six matches.
Missed chances by Atalanta
The home team came close to scoring early in the match. Nicola Zalewski missed a golden chance, while Giorgio Scalvini's header was blocked by the post shortly afterwards.
However, despite initial dominance, Atalanta struggled to convert, ending the first half with just one shot on goal from ten attempts.
The decisive goal after the break
On the other hand, Juventus were lackluster in attack during the first half, but changed their rhythm immediately after the break. Just three minutes after the restart, a deflected shot by Jérémie Boga ended up in the net after the Atalanta defense failed to clear the ball from the area.
Futile efforts of "La Dea"
Atalanta reacted and came close to equalizing around the 60th minute, but goalkeeper Michele Di Gregorio made a crucial save on Berat Djimsiti.
In the end, the lack of efficiency proved fatal for "La Dea", who left without points despite their efforts.
Three golden points for Juve
Although far from their best form, Juventus managed to maintain their advantage and take three very important points in the race for a place in the UEFA Champions League.
Meanwhile, Atalanta remains in seventh place and will look to return to victory in their next match against AS Roma./GazetaExpress/
