Monza 1-0 Juventus: historic victory for the Berlusconi-Galliani team against the spirit of the Signora

Monza is “on fire” with explosions of joy, euphoria and excitement! The Serie A newcomers, the brainchild of Silvio Berlusconi and Adriano Galliani, capitalized on Juventus’ poor form earlier in the season and punished them in exemplary fashion, winning 1-0 and celebrating their first treble in their history in the top flight the Italian league.

The home side’s golden goal was Gitkjaer’s signature in the 74th minute, which was one of Raffaele Palladino’s changes (her debut on the bench replacing the sacked Strop just 24 hours ago), with Juventus paying for them from 41 minutes 10 players played, because of the dismissal of Di Maria with a direct red card.

Juventus went into this game with four draws in their first six league games and two defeats in their first as many group stage games in the Champions League, but failed to get past their opponents at any point of their season, making life even more difficult in the 41st minute.

Then Angel Di Maria acted childishly, elbowing an opponent in the chest and seeing a direct red card, reducing Allegri’s side (now seriously threatened by the sack) to 10 men and being penalized in the second half.

During that time, the home side contained Torino’s attacking threats and hit “like… a cobra” in the 74th minute, with Gichtjaer flying onto the ball’s trajectory after Tsuria’s cross in the 74th minute and Perin hitting a display for 1-0 for the hosts.

This result lasted until the final despite the pressure exerted by the Veccia Signora (he had a unique good moment, a header from Ken in the 81st that was blocked by Di Gregorio), earning Monza the first win in its history in the Serie A celebrated and Juventus should sink even more into the whirlpool of criticism, doubt and introversion.

Monza: Di Gregorio, Marlon (55′ Caldirola), Mari, Izzo, Tsuria, Robella, Sensi (54′ Barberis), Augusto (85′ Birindela), Pessina, Motta (55′ Gitkiaer), Caprari (69′ Kolpani)
