After coach dismissal: Juve ends negative series

Former Italian national coach Luciano Spalletti emphasized that he is ready to talk to any club. Juventus could be his next stop in order to return to club business after the national team.

After the dismissal of coach Igor Tudor, the Italian record champion ended his negative streak against Udinese Calcio.

Two days after the dismissal of coach Igor Tudor, Italy’s record champion Juventus Turin took a first step out of the crisis. Under interim coach Massimiliano Brambilla, the traditional club celebrated a 3:1 (1:1) victory over Udinese Calcio on Wednesday evening, thus ending a negative streak of almost seven weeks with eight games without a win.

Star striker Dusan Vlahovic scored early from a penalty for the Old Lady (5th minute), after the Serbian had been fouled. The supposed 2:0, again by Vlahovic, was disallowed due to an offside position (16th minute). Nicoló Zaniolo (45th+1) equalized just before halftime, Federico Gatti (67th) and Kenan Yildiz (90th+6) from a penalty ensured the well-deserved victory.
