Juventus Vs Como: Fàbregas’ side stun Juventus 2-0 at Allianz Stadium
The Serie A clash labelled juventus vs como ended in a 2-0 victory for Como, who punished defensive lapses and left the Allianz Stadium with a clear away win. The result matters now because it compounds Juventus’ recent run of poor results and comes as club officials keep faith in coach Spalletti despite mounting pressure.
Juventus Vs Como — Development details
Como opened the scoring in the 12th minute after an error by Weston McKennie launched a counter that ended with Vojvoda putting his side ahead. Juventus’ goalkeeper Di Gregorio then made a crucial misplay near his own area that contributed to the breakthrough. The second goal arrived in the 61st minute when a corner led to a turnover; after a short sequence of passes the Juventus goal was left unguarded and Caqueret tapped home into an empty net. The match finished 0-2.
Juventus faced the game without Bremer (injury) and Kalulu (suspension), and head coach Spalletti left David on the bench. Como also started without Nico Paz, who was suspended. During the contest Juventus introduced Conceição for Miretti early in the second half, and later David and Boga were brought on, but those changes failed to change the momentum. Como substituted Baturina with Sergi Roberto after Baturina suffered a muscular issue; that sequence coincided with the build-up to the second goal.
Juventus donned their fourth kit for the season — a horizontal-striped shirt inspired by an earlier 1996-97 concept — hoping for a spark that never arrived. Fans voiced dissatisfaction, with audible boos directed at Spalletti’s side as the match progressed.
Context and escalation
The defeat at the Allianz follows a recent heavy loss in the Champions League playoff stage, when Juventus had conceded five goals in a 5-2 reversal to Galatasaray. Club leadership has continued to publicly back Spalletti while monitoring results. A separate disciplinary development also affected team selection: Juventus’ appeal to overturn Kalulu’s red card was rejected, confirming the defender’s suspension and further limiting options in defense.
Match dynamics were dominated by quick Como transitions and Juventus’ difficulty in building play from the back. Several moments underlined the visitors’ control: a volley by Da Cunha struck the crossbar before halftime, and attempts by Koopmeiners and Thuram later in the game were isolated efforts rather than the product of sustained pressure.
Immediate impact
The 0-2 scoreline has immediate consequences for squad availability and morale. Juventus’ defensive absences — one confirmed injury and one enforced suspension — directly affected selection and were factors in the match events that produced the two goals. The upheld suspension for Kalulu is now an official constraint on upcoming team sheets, and the club will need to plan without him for the matches he is set to miss.
For Como, the win removes pressure linked to recent controversies around the club and its staff, and the result demonstrates the effectiveness of their counterattacking approach when Juventus lost possession in dangerous areas. The game also highlighted fitness concerns: Baturina’s muscular problem required substitution and altered Como’s attacking options late in the first half of the second period.
Forward outlook
Confirmed immediate developments include the continuation of Spalletti in his role as coach while the club reviews on-field performance, and the formal confirmation of Kalulu’s suspension after Juventus’ appeal was denied. These are the next tangible milestones for Juventus’ short-term planning.
What makes this notable is the timing: the defeat compounds a sequence of adverse results that began with the heavy European loss, and the squad’s restricted availability — injured players and sanctioned defenders — has already affected tactical choices on the field. The club’s administrative decisions on discipline and its public stance on coaching stability are now directly linked to team selection and the demands of upcoming fixtures.
