Dusan Vlahovic He had two doubles in a row with Juventus in just one week, one against Genoa and another against Leipzig, the last one was important to get back to the Champions League from a game that seemed lost (2-3). What is the secret of this great Serbian form? The myth Luca Toni.
“Thanks to you Luca, we met last week and since then I’ve scored two doubles. I need to pass by you more often…” commented Vlahovic. with a wide smile after the game on Amazon Prime Video, where the legendary Italian striker, former player of Juventus, among many other teams, commented.
Juve remain unbeaten
That is clear for the Serbian striker, who has been established as the starting nine in this Juve de Thiago Motta undefeated in the season. In fact, in Serie A, the ‘Vecchia Signora’ still doesn’t know what it feels like to concede a goal in six games played. In the Champions League, they got 3, but scored 6. Good numbers for a team that almost knows itself.
And there was more merit in the duel against Leipzig where in the 65th minute they lost 2-1 at the Red Bull Arena and were left one short after their goal, the Italian, was sent off. Michele DiGregorio.
A great success in Europe
At that moment when the great version of Vlahovic appeared, overflowing with confidence, to pull the car of a brave Juve, who went for the game even if one was less, nonconformist when they knew the tie and deserved to be happy at the end of the rivalry who celebrated with the displaced fans of one of the victories remembered. for a long time, also considering that Juve has not competed in Europe for a year.
“We need these victories and these games that we didn’t play last year. We have to get used to this level. I am very happy, especially for the team, we played almost 45 minutes with one man less and we showed that we are becoming a team: we fight together, relentlessly applying pressure,” commented Vlahovic.
Two great goals
His two goals were great goals. The first, in the 50th minute to tie the score at one. He attacked the first post and scored with the inside of his left foot, turning his hip to put it on the far post, impossible for Hungarian Peter Gulacsi.
The second, in the 68th minute, just 3 minutes after conceding 2-1 and missing one. The purpose of the night. Savior at the crucial moment. A shot from the front hit the corner and the definitive Juventine insurrection began.
Reaction in Genoa
His other two goals against Genoa (0-3) were not as good, but decisive. He was unable to strike the balance to lead a second-half winner that could have been suffocated and meant Juventino’s fourth goalless draw in the domestic championship.
But Vlahovic appeared to stop it. The first time from eleven meters, then Winter took more than an avoidable penalty with his hand, putting his coach further on the ropes, the legendary Alberto Gilardino –Motta’s national team teammate – is on a tight rope after losing the cup derby against Sampdoria when they played in Serie B.
The goal unleashed a Juve that seemed tied, stressed by every minute that passed without a goal until Vlahovic’s release. And noticed it. His game is once again as fluid as it was in the early days and in just 8 minutes he found another goal. Koopmeiners In the middle of the field he saw the perfect unmarking of Vlahovic, who instead of giving up he raced out, found the perfect space to receive and hit the cross low to make it a fleeting 0-2.
Two doubles in 6 days. A state of form rarely seen in Serbian. An almost unprecedented silence with which he faced the games. From now on, Vlahovic will only want to face a microphone if it is with Luca Toni.
