Juventus-Standard Liège 1-1: Soulé scores from a penalty. Vlahovic will also miss the Cremonese

TURIN — A disappointing first part, with the starters on the pitch, the second half enlivened by the entry of the young players. The 1-1 draw between Juventus and Standard Liègethe last friendly before the resumption of the championship for the bianconeri who did not see Church neither on the pitch nor on the bench, it was the average between the two halves. In the first, decidedly below expectations, the senators suffered for a long time from the initiatives of the Belgians, who first made the post tremble with Balikwisha then they unlocked the achievement with a Danilo’s own goal on awkward exit of Szczesny. Polish goalkeeper who had to raise the white flag in the middle of the match due to a neck problem, extending the already substantial list of injured and unavailable players.

In doubt DeSciglio and Churchwho should be available: “In the first half we struggled a bit because many were playing in the first friendly, we went at a slow pace, especially for the speed in passing – he explained at the end of the match -. They pressed us and then we conceded this goal after a mistake. In the second half the boys did well, they have another leg, it was good training. We need the goal to wake us up for Cremona since we haven’t conceded a goal for a long time”.
