"Kenan Yildiz's late goal helped Juventus claim a 2-0 win over Pisa and move them up to third in Serie A, one point behind leaders Inter. It was far from a classic, though Pisa twice struck the woodwork, but also scored an own-goal as Juventus failed to convince against the side second from bottom in the table. Juventus started brightly, though failed to cause Adrian Semper too many issues as Weston McKennie's tight-angled shot was kept out before Yildiz bent one just wide."
"But Pisa grew into the game as the half went on and should have taken the lead in the 44th minute, when Stefano Moreo drifted away on a short corner and flicked a header against the crossbar. And the hosts picked up where they left off after the break, with Samuele Angori's bending effort deflected just wide of the top-left corner three minutes into the second half."
Juventus defeated Pisa 2-0 away, with Kenan Yildiz scoring a late goal after Jonathan David's assist and an earlier own-goal by Arturo Calabresi. Pisa hit the woodwork multiple times, including efforts from Stefano Moreo and Matteo Tramoni that struck the crossbar and post, and Samuele Angori's deflected shot nearly found the net. Juventus started well but failed to create many clear chances until later in the match. The win extends Juventus's positive run to three consecutive victories and seven wins in eight matches across all competitions. Pisa remain second from bottom despite strong chances.
