Juventus has faced significant frustration this season, particularly regarding their inability to secure wins against lesser opponents after taking an early lead. The team's tendency to retreat defensively instead of pressing the advantage has resulted in dropping points, including a notable instance against Cagliari. Even after dominating matches, missed chances have allowed weaker teams to equalize, culminating in losing 17 points from winning positions. The situation underscores the need for Juve to refine their approach to closing out games effectively.
Even in games where they do keep their foot on the gas, they haven't managed to get that finishing goal. That has allowed teams that really don't have any business getting a result against Juve to hang around until they can equalize.
The Bianconeri have had an unfortunate reflex to drop back into their own half after gaining an advantage, instead of stepping on their opponents' throat and killing off the game early.
