Locatelli's strike secures victory for Juventus as Milan faces goalkeeper challenge

Posted : 23 October 2023
In the 62nd minute, Manuel Locatelli's precise strike proved to be the decider as the visiting team climbed to third place in the rankings, trailing Milan by just one point and Inter by two. The home side faced adversity when they were reduced to 10 players for more than 50 minutes after Malick Thiaw received a red card for obstructing Moise Kean's clear goalscoring opportunity.
 
Both teams grappled with the weight of injuries and suspensions. Milan, coping with the absence of their primary goalkeepers Mike Maignan and Marco Sportiello, called upon their third-choice goalie, the 40-year-old Antonio Mirante.
 
Mirante had a relatively uneventful game until Locatelli's game-winning strike, which took a fortuitous deflection off defender Rade Krunic. Despite that, Mirante made critical saves later in the match, thwarting attempts from Dusan Vlahovic and Andre Cambiaso, though the home team struggled to pose a substantial threat to the visitors.
 
Notably, Juventus has encountered only one loss in their nine Serie A encounters this season, demonstrating their resilience and strong performance in the league.
