The match, highly anticipated by fans, lived up to its billing from the opening whistle. Both teams displayed attacking intent, but it was Juventus who struck first in the 21st minute through Dusan Vlahovic. The Serbian striker pounced on a loose ball in the Milan defense and slotted it home with aplomb. Milan, stunned by the early setback, struggled to regain their composure. Despite the presence of stars such as Rafael Leao and Olivier Giroud, the reigning Italian champions found it difficult to create meaningful chances. Juventus, on the other hand, defended resolutely and grew in confidence as the match progressed. Federico Chiesa, who recently returned from a long-term injury, caused constant problems for the Milan defense with his pace and dribbling skills. In the second half, Juventus doubled their advantage in the 55th minute. Adrien Rabiot headed home a free-kick from Angel Di Maria, who had been impressive in his debut for the Bianconeri. Milan fought valiantly to salvage something from the match, but their efforts were in vain. Juventus goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny made several crucial saves, including a spectacular stop to deny Theo Hernandez in the closing stages. The win was a major statement of intent from Juventus, who have struggled in recent seasons. It also marked the first time since 2017 that they had beaten Milan in Serie A. Coach Massimiliano Allegri praised his team’s performance, saying: “We needed a win like this to show that we are back. The players have worked hard and deserve all the credit.” Meanwhile, Milan coach Stefano Pioli admitted that his team had not performed to their potential. “We were not at our best today,” he said. “Juventus played better and deserved to win.” The result leaves Juventus sixth in the Serie A standings with 22 points, while AC Milan remain second on 38 points.
