Paulo Dybala sent a message to Juventus with a stunning goal and pointed celebration, but also saw a penalty saved in a 1-0 win at Triestina.
Match Events
Juve broke the deadlock with a simply extraordinary piece of magic from Dybala. La Joya sent a message to the club that he doesn’t want to leave, as he twisted and turned with a dummy to confuse defenders, then placed a delightful lob into the net from just inside the area, celebrating by patting the badge on his jersey and pointing to the name on the back.
A long-range Sami Khedira screamer was deflected, forcing a tricky save, then Bernardeschi’s poor first touch still enabled him to earn a penalty, as Daniel Offredi rushed out to trip him.
However, Offredi made up for the error with a fantastic save to keep out Dybala’s penalty at the near post.
Triestina started to get a foothold in the game after that and Wojciech Szczesny had to make a very difficult save on Tommaso Coletti’s ferocious volley.
Aaron Ramsey made his Juventus debut, coming on for the final 20 minutes, and Emre Can fired wide when Gonzalo Higuain had been trying to set it up.

Impressive performance from juve. Good high pressing and energy. Manzukic has to go. Higuian was good. Good debut from Ramsey. Mild field looks great 👍. Dybala was great once again he as a false 9 with costa on the right wing and Ronaldo on the left wing 🔥🔥🔥. Danilo looks good. Ramsey and pianjic and rabiot will be 🔥🔥 🔥. Scezzney finally looks like juve # 1.

Juventus needs two new strikers up front. Useless Mandzukic so boring lack skills, awful passes etc . Higuain old and fat .
