A gritty Torino holds Spalletti’s Juventus at bay at the Allianz Stadium. Paleari and Ismajli are outstanding, Zhegrova lively off the bench, but the derby della Mole finishes goalless.
No goals, plenty of intensity, and another stumble for Juventus. At the Allianz Stadium, the Bianconeri were frustrated by a superb defensive performance from Torino, who left the field with a precious point and the applause of their traveling fans.
Luciano Spalletti’s side pushed hard but struggled to create clear chances, especially in the final third. Torino, compact and disciplined, waited for the right moments to counter, threatening several times through Simeone and Adams.
The first half saw Juventus try to seize control through Conceição’s runs, but Paleari stood tall between the posts and Ismajli led by example in defense. The Cholito Simeone tested Di Gregorio and even found the net, only for the flag to go up for offside.
After the break, Spalletti introduced Zhegrova, whose pace and creativity added energy to Juventus’ attack. McKennie forced another fine save from Paleari, while Yildiz tried to spark something in flashes. The Torino keeper, however, remained unbeatable — as did Ismajli, who capped a near-perfect display.
The 0–0 result leaves Juventus with mixed feelings: solid at the back, but once again lacking the decisive spark in attack. For Baroni’s Torino — coached from the stands due to suspension — it’s a proud, hard-fought draw in the derby.
