Juve, Champions armored: now the goal is third place

The victory over Sassuolo gives Juve a double flying goal: thanks to the recent defeats of their direct competitors, the bianconeri have in fact gone to only one point from Napoli, third in the standings but nailed at 67 from the defeat against Empoli, and have stretched on the pursuers, which Juve now looks down on from its 66 points.

Behind him, in fact, they lost in three: Roma were stopped by Inter on the 58-point step, Salernitana surprisingly defeated Fiorentina, designated only a few days ago by Allegri as the main suit, while Lazio failed to snatch any points from Milan. Only Atalanta won: they restart from 54 points, but theoretically they are still in the game because they are among the teams that have a game to recover.
