Twitter erupts as Juventus claim crucial 2-0 win over Sampdoria

Juventus grabbed a pivotal win over Sampdoria due to Chiesa's early opener

Juventus registered a crucial 2-0 win over Sampdoria at the Luigi Ferraris in Serie A to mount further pressure on leaders AC Milan.

The Old Lady had its nose in front when Federico Chiesa rounded off a wonderful team goal that unlocked the hosts' back-line. It started with a well-orchestrated exchange between Cristiano Ronaldo and Alvaro Morata, with the latter playing in Chiesa to complete the move. Aaron Ramsey put the cherry on top with an injury-time goal.

Juventus completely bossed possession and won battles in midfield. On another day, if not for some brave defending by Sampdoria's centre-backs, they'd have comfortably won by three or more goals.

Giorgio Chiellini also matched Sampdoria's defensive performance with a couple of outstanding challenges and aerial wins. Besides, it was patient build-up from Juventus, who were barely bothered.

Morata looked certain to continue his ripe form with a goal, but VAR overruled his effort in the 56th minute offside. Ramsey, however, did manage to add gloss to the scoreline in the 91st minute after being played in by Juan Cuadrado.

Overall, it was a complete, progressive performance from Juventus, who are slowly beginning to gather momentum again.

Great build up by Juventus on this goal. Quick passing, nice combinations. Ronaldo plays it wide to Morata who crosses it low to Chiesa for the goal

Wonderful team goal from Juventus. Featuring Ronaldo, Morata and Chiesa. I just want Morata to always start. That last all. That’s all I want. Juve 1-0 Sampdoria.

So far Juve playing rather beautifully against Sampdoria. The Pirlo style of football that he’s been trying to install. We hadn’t seen much of it but Mckennie, Cuadrado and Morata help facilitate this fast football.

Federico Chiesa marca su 5to gol en #Serie A esta temporada, superando a Álvaro Morata por la 2da mayor cantidad de goles para la Juventus (Cristiano Ronaldo lidera el equipo con 15 goles). pic.twitter.com/NrMsKNjUqc

Andrea Pirlo has probably realized this is his best midfield unit right now - Arthur, Bentancur and McKennie. Don’t see Rabiot or Ramsey starting consistently now.

Chiellini flying in with blocks. We missed you, Capitano ©️ 🦍

Dopo il primo tempo. Questo centrocampo sembra il migliore possibile, ora, per la #Juventus. Ottima prestazione di #Cuadrado. La #Sampdoria è ben organizzata, ma non incide. #SampJuve

58ʼ – SAVE! Quagliarella with a great efforts but Szczesny denies him. #SampJuve | 0-1 | #JuveLive

71’ played. Still 1-0 to Juve. Samp pressing Juve a lot higher up the field.

An injured Morata would probably give you more next 15 minutes
