Juventus poor run continues in 0
MILAN (AP) — Juventus’ mixed form continued as it was held to 0-0 at Torino in a Serie A derby on Saturday.
Dušan Vlahović hit the post in one of Juve’s few clearcut chances, while the Bianconeri also risked conceding at the other end.
Juventus has won only one of its past six league matches and slipped to third in Serie A. Fourth-placed Bologna can close the gap to two points with a win at Monza later.
Juventus had an impressive run in the derby, having not lost to Torino in nine years. The last time Torino even managed a draw was more than two years ago.
The Bianconeri had a brilliant chance to take the lead in the seventh minute when Federico Chiesa whipped in a cross from the right for an unmarked Vlahović but his effort smashed off the left upright.
Vlahović had another good opportunity later in the first period but Torino goalkeeper Vanja Milinković-Savić pulled off a great save to deny the Serbia striker with an outstretched foot.
