The only goal at Juventus Stadium was scored in the 16th minute by Moise Kean, who took precedence over the Spaniard Morata at the tip of the attack. The Italian national team beat Betancur’s attempt out of reach of goalkeeper Patricia and scored the second goal after returning from the English Everton.
AS had the best chance to equalize just before the end of the first half, when Abraham scored after Mchitarjan’s penetration. An easy foul by the English representative into the open goal was preceded by a foul by the goalkeeper Szczesný and the referee Orsato whistled a penalty instead of the left advantage. Veretout took the penalty kick, but his weak attempt eliminated Szczesny and saved “Old Lady” three points.

Naples could not succeed in the match with Turin for a long time. The only goal of the match was scored in the 81st minute by the striker Osimhen, who, after a barrier in front of the Milinkovič-Savič goal, knocked the ball into the net with his head.
The home team also won the eighth duel of the year and returned to the first place by two points ahead of AC Milan. Turin, whose defender David Zima was waiting for a chance, lost for the second time in a row and is twelfth.
Atalanta in Empoli sharply cut off the two-match waiting to win. The team from Bergamo directed the newcomer Iličič to the success on the field, who scored the first two goals of the match. In the 30th minute, Di Francesco dramatized the course of the match, but Atalanta did not let the win. Vitiho’s own goal gave the visitors the lead in the 89th minute Zapata.

The Brazilian striker made his mark for the first time in the 4th minute. Cáceres raised a quarter of an hour before the end, but Thorsby midfielder dramatized the end of the match in the 82nd minute. Pedro insured the home win at the set time.
