"The Bianconeri had not been beaten at Allianz Stadium since a 4-0 defeat to Atalanta on March 9 of last year, but they saw their unbeaten stretch of 16 home league matches come to an end here. Como registered their first top-flight victory over Juventus away from home since April 1951, while also completing a league double over them for just the second time in their Serie A history, following a run of three successive wins between November 1950 and January 1952."
"But Como did double their advantage just after the hour through Caqueret, who tucked home from Da Cunha's centre to round off a blistering counter from a Juve corner. Luciano Spalletti's team struggled to create any more chances of note until six minutes before full-time, but Teun Koopmeiners' free-kick cannoned against the right-hand post as Como held firm for a potentially huge three points in their campaign."
Como secured a 2-0 victory over Juventus at the Allianz Stadium through goals from Mergim Vojvoda and Maxence Caqueret. Vojvoda opened the scoring in the 11th minute after cutting inside from the right and finishing past Michele Di Gregorio following a Weston McKennie giveaway. Lois Openda missed a chance when Jean Butez comfortably gathered his attempted lob, and Lucas da Cunha struck the crossbar with a fierce volley. Caqueret doubled the lead after tucking home from Da Cunha's centre on a counter. Juventus struggled to create clear chances; Teun Koopmeiners hit the post late. Como registered an xG of 1.41 from 11 attempts and completed their first away league win over Juventus since 1951.
