Allegri finds the "Joya" and enjoys Higuain in view of the direct clash with Rome. On January 3rd, it will be a cup match at the Stadium
Paulo Dybala takes Juventus back. La Joya returns after the two benches in a row and sends comforting signals to Allegri: it is his one of the two goals to Genoa (2-0, Higuain the doubling network), a victory that brings Juve to the quarterfinals against the Turin on January 3rd at the Stadium. The best way to present themselves in the direct match against Roma on Saturday.
Dybala is back, he did not play in the Champions League since 5 December against Olympiacos. The public at the Stadium supports him and after ten minutes accompanies his punishment (over the barrier) with a long scream of waiting. In the Italian Cup version of Juventus there is also room for Bentancur, Marchisio, Douglas Costa and Bernardeschi, the latter being the best in the initial phase. A moment of the race in which the Genoa wall holds and the spaces are few. The first real opportunity of the race is at 24 ': Bernardeschi takes the defense of Genoa, he focuses and widens for Douglas Costa who tries a left, but Lamanna flies to his left and rejects. Juventus accelerates, ten minutes later also Marchisio tries, but his conclusion is high.
In the second half Genoa raises its head. Prima Centurion does not exploit a mistake in Barzagli's disengagement, then Szczesny raises a powerful left by Galabinov over the crossbar. Allegri runs for cover and puts Higuain in place of Douglas Costa, but the Bulgarian striker of Genoa still scare Szczesny with a left from the edge out of the box. Juve waits for the right opportunity and builds it with its number nine. The doubling of Higuain arrives at 76 ': anticipates an opponent, enters the area and fires Lamanna with a right diagonally impregnable.
It is the goal of safety, the penalty canceled at Genoa with the Var (the referee Maresca returns to the decision after having reviewed the contact between Asamoah and Pellegri) Juve flies to the quarter: he expected Rome, will find the derby with Torino. And waiting for Saturday's match against Di Francesco's team in the league he finds Dybala again.
