Juventus missed an opportunity to narrow the gap with AC Milan in Serie A after drawing 0-0 with Torino in the Turin derby under Max Allegri’s management.

In a highly anticipated Turin derby, Torino and Juventus battled it out on the pitch, resulting in a goalless draw. The match, which took place at the Grande Torino Stadium in Turin on April 13, 2024, showcased the fierce competition between the two teams.

Despite the lack of goals, the game was not short on intensity. Both sides fought hard for possession, with Juventus’ Serbian forward, Dusan Vlahovic, at the forefront of the action. Vlahovic had an early opportunity to put his team ahead, but his shot hit the post after a well-placed cross from Federico Chiesa. The Serbian forward continued to press forward, but his efforts were thwarted by Torino’s Polish midfielder, Karol Linetty, and his compatriot, goalkeeper Vanja Milinkovic-Savic.

As the match progressed, Torino began to assert themselves and took control of the game. They created several chances, with substitute Valentino Lazaro coming close to breaking the deadlock in injury time. However, Lazaro’s header from Linetty’s cross sailed over the bar, leaving both teams frustrated.

The draw means that neither side experienced a change in their Serie A standings. Juventus remains in third place, while Torino holds onto their ninth-place position.

Although the match ended without any goals, the intensity and determination displayed by both teams made for an exciting and closely contested Turin derby.
