Frosinone Pushes Late as Spalletti’s Side Struggles to Close the Match
Despite maintaining an advantage through the second half, Juventus failed to capitalize on multiple opportunities to seal the win. Conceição missed a close-range chance in the 51st minute after receiving an assist from Celik, and later sent a 20-meter shot narrowly past the post. As fatigue set in, Frosinone manager Vincenzo Alvini substituted four players, helping his squad push higher up the pitch and test the Juventus defense.
Frosinone came within inches of an equalizer in the second minute of stoppage time when Calvani headed a corner kick against the crossbar. The narrow escape left Juventus with a tense 1-0 victory to start their league campaign.
Injury Concern and Tactical Notes from the Opener
The victory came with a late setback for the Bianconeri. Goalkeeper Vicario was forced to leave the pitch in the 90th minute due to a physical issue, making way for Mattia Perin to see out the remaining moments. Initial assessments on the field pointed toward potential cramp issues, though the sudden substitution drew immediate concern from the bench.
On the opposing side, Alvini was forced to adjust his lineup before kickoff, omitting Ghedjemis due to ongoing transfer negotiations involving Besiktas and Monaco, as reported by ANSA. In his place, Fini stepped into the attacking trident alongside Raimondo and Kvernadze.
