At the end of a week in which he was subjected to alleged racist abuse at Cagliari, Juventus striker Moise Kean downed AC Milan in Serie A.
Match Events
37' Referee rules Sandro handball not enough for penalty
Despite the fact the ball struck Sandro on the upper arm, a corner is eventually awarded and play resumes. The Milan players are not happy.
39' GOAL! Juventus 0-1 Milan (Piatek)
Despite feeling aggrieved at being denied a penalty by VAR, Milan are positive, win the ball high up the field and Piatek slots home under Szczesny from just inside the box into the bottom-right corner! He just can’t stop scoring!
It's excellent pressing from Milan and Bakayoko nicks the ball away before finding Piatek, and the in-form striker made no mistake with his finish!
47' CLOSE! Mandzukic's bicycle kick saved by Reina
Bernardeschi’s first delivery is cleared, but it comes back to him and he curls it into the box again, where Mandzukic pulls off a spectacular bicycle kick that Reina tips over the bar at full stretch!
56' SAVE! Szczesny denies Bakayoko's header
Borini wins a corner as he strikes a left-footed effort at goal from the left that is blocked behind. The delivery is headed towards the far corner by Bakayoko, but it's tame and Szczesny can gather easily.
60' Penalty Goal! Juventus 1-1 Milan (Dybala)
Juventus are awarded a penalty as Dybala is found in the box and turns neatly before being brought down by the sliding Musacchio!
Musacchio is shown a yellow card for his foul. He wasn't denying a clear goalscoring opportunity, and it's the right decision.
Dybala tucks the penalty coolly down the middle to get the Bianconeri back on level terms!
66' NICE TRY! Calhanoglu's free kick wide out
Calhanoglu stands over a free-kick on the edge of the area after Pjanic gives away a foul and fires agonizingly wide and into the side-netting!
71' Kean misses a golden chance!
Juventus win a corner and Rugani's flick-on bouncing off Mandzukic and into the path of Kean, but the young striker can only blaze over as he loses his balance while stretching for it!
76' FOUL! Kean's goal disallowed
Reina grasps at thin air while trying to reach Pjanic’s corner kick, and Kean heads into the empty net, but a free-kick is given Milan’s way as Romagnoli had been left in a heap on the floor as the ball came in.
84' GOAL! Juventus 2-1 Milan (Kean)
Pjanic wins the ball high up and feeds Kean on the right. The young striker takes a touch and then fires it into the bottom-left corner across Reina to put his side 2-1 up! It’s his second in two games!
Pjanic did really well to intercept the ball in a dangerous area and work it wide for Kean to control and finish. Great vision from the midfielder.
Match Report
Moise Kean came off the bench to earn Juventus a 2-1 comeback win at home to AC Milan, paving the way for the runaway Serie A leaders to be crowned champions this weekend.
Napoli need to avoid defeat at home to Genoa on Sunday to keep their slim title hopes alive after Kean, who was subjected to alleged racist abuse in a midweek win at Cagliari, came up trumps.
Milan led in the first half thanks to Krzysztof Piatek's 21st Serie A goal of the season, with Juve struggling to create openings against the Rossoneri in the absence of injured superstar Cristiano Ronaldo.
But Paulo Dybala's penalty got Massimiliano Allegri's side back on level terms at Allianz Stadium and, with six minutes to go, teenager Kean fired home to score for the fifth consecutive game for club and country.

I believe this game has shown that AC Milan would become the great team of the old days. They just need some tweaking and the Sleeping Giant will surely wake up next season. AC Milan's problem is just that they couldn't win day in day out. This was a game played on level par. Juventus was made to suffer and had to grind out to win. And Allegri had to tweak the team to make sure they got the win. Alex Sandro hand ball may have looked like a penalty call but his head was turning away when the ball hit his hand so the referee didn't give the penalty after VAR review (that may not be the next come next season where either hand to ball nor ball to hand would surely be considered "handball"). I really liked that AC Milan have now a superb striker in Piatek. This guy can really score goals. And for me, having K18 (as Cristiano Ronaldo is CR7, I made up K18... don't get mad guys) start from the bench is a blessing because he gave Juve the much needed energy to penetrate the stubborn AC Milan's defence. Great thinkering from Allegri.

Juventus have won but there is still problems in this team . Allegri and useless Mandzukic are our biggest problems . Mandzukic plays so awfully yet was left to play for 90 minutes and yet couldn’t score. Even if he plays every goddamn day he won’t score. It’s been over 3 months he last scored . Ajax ain’t AC Milan so therefore Allegri cant play defensively. Juventus should go all attack and play kean up front Ronaldo. Juventus should get the deal done at Ajax. I think Juventus can win ,if Allegri do the right thing. When i say right thing, i mean putting up our best 11 out there and playing attacking soccer. But if he does otherwise. 😂 Ajax will show Juventus how dangerous they are . Back to today’s game . We won again another boring tactics by dumbass Allegri. Please bring in a new coach next season and sell Mandzukic to China so Juventus can make more money from him . Good luck 🍀 Juventus next week vs Ajax and Happy weekend y’ll Juventus fans . Kean as been absolutely important for juventus scoring in every games and showing useless Mandzukic how to score goals.
