JAKARTA - Again, Juventus have not tired of playing a draw in the Italian Serie A match. Juve failed to win after being detained by the host Atalanta 1-1 at Gewiss Stadium, Wednesday, January 15, 2025 in the morning WIB. The result also thwarted Atalanta's shift of Inter Milan, which is perched in second place.
Juve still just won a point in the league game. Juve's game scenario didn't change. Winning first like when facing Torino in the Derby della Mole in Serie A. But Juve's goal finally conceded so he drew 1-1 at the derby.
When they played an away match against Atalanta, they had taken the lead after waiting for the goal until the first half. It's just that the advantage could not be maintained by the Bianconeri. Atalanta could equalize the score to 1-1 through Mateo Retegui's goal.
A disappointing result because Juve have played 13 draws from 20 league games. This made Juve never able to penetrate the Champions League zone. With 34 points, Juve stuck in fifth place. They are two points adrift with Lazio who are in fourth place.
Meanwhile, Atalanta failed to meet the target. Only being able to get one point made Atalanta remain stuck in third place. They failed to shift Inter, who both pocketed 43 points. But Inter were ahead on goal difference so they remained in second place.
The failure to get full points made coach Juve Thiago Motta disappointed. Moreover, he is targeting to win even though he cannot accompany the team. Motta got a red card in the match against Torino last weekend.
"Obviously we are disappointed with the result. We came to win the game. We played well and created several chances. But we were not able to score enough goals," said Motta,
"We also drew more. This makes us not like it. We are never happy with the result," he said again.
In that match, Juve actually lost the start. Atalanta who played at home controlled the game more, especially in the first half. Only, both Atalanta and Juve are both barren. Moreover, not many opportunities were created.
The best chance was obtained by midfielder Teun Koopmeiners towards the end of the first half. However, the efforts of the former Atalanta player who met the cross were thwarted by goalkeeper Marco Carnesecchi. The score at halftime remained 0-0.
Entering the second half, Juve played more aggressively. They pressed La Dea's defense from the start of the match. Their efforts quickly yielded positive results.
The game has only been running for nine minutes, defender Pierre Kalulu has successfully broken into the host. Starting from a corner kick, Kalulu welcomed a header that hit the post before sliding into the net. The Carnesecchi goalkeeper tried to block even though the ball had crossed the line.
After Juve took the lead 1-0, the game heated up. Atalanta played aggressively to catch up. Midfielder Ederson got a good chance. But his shot was saved by goalkeeper Michele Di Gregorio.
Furthermore, Atalanta got a chance through Ademola Lookman. Again, that opportunity failed to be converted into a goal. However, Gian Piero Gasperini's team did not give up and rebuild attacks to suppress the opponent's defense.
Atalanta's patience finally paid off. Retegui, who had just recovered from injury and was fielded as a substitute, was able to break the deadlock in the 78th minute. His header while diving when welcoming Asist Total Bellanova also equalized the score to 1-1.
When the match entered its final minutes, Atalanta and Juve took turns attacking. Juve had a chance through Manuel Locatelli which was thwarted by goalkeeper Carnesexcchi.
Next, it was Atalanta's turn to change the score when Nicolo Zanio just faced Di Gregorio. However, his ball can be held by the goalkeeper's feet. La Vecchia young starna Kenan Yildiz almost scored in injury time. But that chance failed and the final score remained 1-1.
