Cagliari achieved the feat of their season: they beat Juventus 1-0, bringing immense joy to the 16,412 fans who filled the sold-out Unipol Domus stadium. Mazzitelli scored the winning goal midway through the second half.
Pisacane changed formation and opted for a 4-3-3, with Palestra as a winger and Gaetano as a central midfielder, while Spalletti switched to a 4-2-3-1 . In the ninth minute, a free kick was earned on the right, but Esposito squandered it with a completely misplaced kick. After 15 minutes, Juventus were awarded a penalty for an alleged foul by Mazzitelli on Miretti, who was kicking with his right foot. But in reality, it was the other way around, with the Juventus number 21 hitting the Rossoblu number 4: VAR called Massa and the decision was reversed .
Miretti, after the penalty was disallowed, also tried his luck from midfield in the 24th minute, seeing Caprile out: he went over him, but it didn't hit the target. A minute later, he received the ball on the center-right side of the penalty area, but his shot was deflected by Obert, and Caprile blocked it with his body . In the 28th minute, a free kick was intercepted by Koopmeiners and Locatelli; the Dutchman's shot was blocked, sparking a Cagliari counterattack that Esposito squandered by misplacing the pass to Adopo.
Cagliari showed very little in attack, with no shots on goal from Perin, who replaced Di Gregorio today. In the 40th minute, a good cross from Mazzitelli almost found Adopo, but Kelly beat him to a header. The half-time break followed two minutes of added time .
The second half was played without substitutions. In the 49th minute, Kılıçsoy made a good play from the edge of the box to play the ball to Esposito, who fired from the byline on the right, but Perin sent it out for a corner. Miretti, however, missed the target in the 52nd minute, with a right-footed shot wide after cutting inside from the left. Two minutes later, the first substitution of the match was made, with Borrelli replacing Kılıçsoy .
Cambiaso also tries for Juventus in the 56th minute, with a nice left-footed shot from outside the box that Caprile sends to the corner. Shortly after the hour mark (62nd minute), Yıldız makes a great play, beating three opponents, his right-footed shot going just over . Pisacane also replaces Esposito, who doesn't perform well, sending Idrissi to the left.
A minute after the second substitution, in the 65th minute, Cagliari took the lead with their first shot on target: Gaetano's free kick from midfield, the ball just inside the area, where Mazzitelli, with a splendid right-footed shot, left Perin with no chance at the near post . The Unipol Domus, with a sold-out crowd tonight (16,412), roared.
Spalletti immediately took the lead, bringing on Openda and Zhegrova for Miretti and Locatelli. It became a siege, with Zhegrova immediately testing Caprile with a left-footed shot from outside the area (70', saved on the ground), and shortly after, a diagonal shot from Kalulu was saved by the Rossoblu keeper. Yıldız again, in the 79th minute, unleashed a dribbling run before unleashing a right-footed shot from outside the area that Caprile again saved .
Spalletti made another double substitution in the 80th minute, with Francisco Conceição and Khéphren Thuram coming in for Cambiaso and McKennie. Yıldız received the ball from Bremer in the 84th minute, this time on his left foot, and fired from the edge of the box: Mina deflected it and fooled Caprile, the ball hitting the post and coming out after a serious save . Juventus' final substitution came two and a half minutes from the end, with Adžić coming on for David.
On the free kick following the substitution, Koopmeiners' header was saved by Caprile. Just before the start of five minutes of injury time, Conceição's cross from the right was met by Openda's header in the center of the area, but he failed to direct it on goal and squandered a great opportunity . In the 93rd minute, Yıldız crossed to Bremer, who was decisively blocked by Obert as he was about to shoot.
Massa gives the ball an extra minute of added time than the expected five, on the last ball, a cross from the right and a header from Thuram that goes wide, blocked by a decisive save from Mina that seals the victory.
