A pair of strikes from Paulo Dybala and Moise Kean helped Juventus complete a comeback 2-1 Serie A victory over Sassuolo on Monday, pushing the Bianconeri to move closer to third place.
Juve entered Allianz Stadium without Manuel Locatelli, Juan Cuadrado, Arthur Melo, and Federico Chiesa, while Matthijs De Ligt and Dusan Vlahovic started the game from the bench.
The away side went ahead in the 38th minute after a great team move which allowed Giacomo Raspadori to burst away the defender to drill home from a tight angle.
Juve responded quickly to get back on level terms before the interval when Sassuolo was caught napping in its own field, and Denis Zakaria set up for Dybala to finish with a trademark left-footed curler.
As the game seemed to be all square, Juve scored the winner in the closing stage, when Leonardo Bonucci’s long pass was nodded for Kean, who broke into the box to smash in an angled drive.
The win, coupled with Napoli’s frustrating 3-2 defeat to Empoli, saw Juve move within a point of the Partenopei in third place.
