👉🤍🖤 Result Juventus 3 - 0 Como 🤍💙

What an impressive way to lead the Bianconeri! Samuel Mbangula, just 20 years old, put Juventus ahead in the 23rd minute. He skillfully outmaneuvered Como's goalkeeper, Pepe Reina, with a precise right-footed shot into the bottom right corner. Mbangula is certainly living up to Coach Thiago Motta's expectations after being selected as a standout talent from the Next Gen squad.

Juventus are on fire! A spectacular goal before ending the first half. In the 45+1, Timothy Weah scored with a left footed shot to the center. Yildiz delivered a low cross, Vlahovic faked a move, and Weah took a left-footed shot right away. The ball struck the crossbar before sailing over the goal line.

The victory is sealed in the 91st minute. Andrea Cambiaso scored with a powerful left-footed strike sending the ball into the bottom left corner. The assist came from Samuel Mbangula.

Stats before the game:

After losing three of their first five matches (1W, 1D) against Como in Serie A between 1949 and 1952, Juventus have remained unbeaten in all of their subsequent 21 matches (12W, 9D) against Como in the tournament, winning the most recent one: 3-1, at Sinigaglia, on 22 February 2003 (own goal by Juarez and goals by Marco Di Vaio and Mauro Camoranesi for the Bianconeri and a goal by Fabio Pecchia for the Lombardy team).
Juventus is the team against which Como has drawn the most matches in its history in Serie A: 10 out of 26 matches; three wins for Como and 13 victories for the Bianconeri complete the picture.
Juventus and Como will face each other on the first matchday of Serie A for the first time since 1988/89 (3-0 victory for the Bianconeri); in general, two of Como's last three seasonal debuts in the top division (3L) were against the Piedmontese team.
Juventus is the team that has won the most matches on the 1st day in the history of Serie A: 59, including seven successes in the last eight games (1D) in the seasonal debut in the top tournament.
Como returned to Serie A after 21 years: on August 19, in fact, exactly 7758 days will have passed since its last game in the top division (May 24, 2003, 1-0 victory against Torino); only in the period between May 1953 and October 1975 (22 years, to be precise 8162 days) did the Lariani have to wait more days to return to Serie A.
No team has won more games than Como in the 2023/24 Serie B 'regular season': 21, on par with Parma and Venezia.
