TWB22: 11/10/25

Juventus's hopes of winning their 26th Scudetto were washed away at the Renato Curi stadium after a nail biting finale. Juventus were limited to long range shots by Perugia, who set out their stall defensively and were difficult to break down. The danger man in the first half of this game was Alessandro Del Piero, who with his slalom runs had exposed Perugia's defence at times and Juventus came close on 20 minutes when Pippo Inzaghi shot wide of Andrea Mazzantini's goal. A free kick on 21 minutes by Del Piero and a shot just wide of the post from Zinedine Zidane on 40 minutes, were the best chances Juve had in a frustrating half. Juventus were occasionally put under pressure, but with 17 clean sheets this season and only 19 goals against, Perugia seemed lost for ideas.
